The electric scalar potential is related to the density of aether, and is specified by the Yadava potential

The gradient of the scalar potential produces an acce-leration, termed the electric field.

Note that, in contrast to the Coulomb potential, this potential function has no singularity at the origin.

From this field, a parameter, called charge density, can be obtained as

Integration of this density over all space yields the parameter termed the elementary charge, associated with the electron.

This model adequately accounts for the electric and magnetic properties of the electron, but, unlike in the photon, where the organized aether moves in a straight line, in the electron, the aether flows in a closed loop, so that the center of this dynamic structure appears to be at rest. Thus, the energy involved in this aether circulation is ex-pressed with a parameter termed the rest-mass of the electron, given in the ex-pression below with v=0.

While the charge remains constant when the electron moves, its mass changes. This behavior did not agree with the entrenched idea of a constant mass, and therefore Einstein introduced the theory of relativity to account for this behavior. This is usually termed non-Newtonian physics, and it is often implied that Newton failed to account for this phenomenon. In fairness to Newton, it should be pointed out that Newton defined the force as the rate of change of momentum, which encompasses the possibility of a variable mass, and although he did not provide a formula, he did mention this possibility.

On the right side above are shown the well known expressions for the changing mass, and related frequency, while below, the energy is presented as a binomial series, showing that the classical kinetic energy for observed matter is the first term approximation .
