IMO the following is an extremely important paper that points the
direction to further advances in physics.

In an article named "The Physical Origin of Electron Spin" Milo Wolff
has completed the proof that all properties of the electron are able to
be derived from a physical model.  In that model there is a wave that
converges on the electron center, rotates and diverges again so that the
combination leads to a standing wave.  The rotation is according to the
model known as spherical rotation (to distinguish it from the normal
cylindrical rotation).  There is a detailed explanation at
http://www.sirius.com/~flapjack/milo/PhysRevSpinNov97.html
although unfortunately the figures from his PhysRev paper are missing.

Wolff traces his ideas back to Clifford in 1876 and later to the
pioneers of quantum physics and so the solution to this problem has been
a long time coming.  Wolff's words on this result...

'Although the origin of spin has been a fascinating problem of physics
for sixty years, spin itself is not the important result. Instead, the
most extraordinary conclusion of the wave electron structure is that the
laws of physics and the structure of matter ultimately depend upon the
waves from the total of matter in a universe. Every particle
communicates its wave state with all other matter so that the particle
structure, energy exchange, and the laws of physics are properties of
the entire ensemble. This is the origin of Mach's Principle. The
universal properties of the quantum space waves are also found to
underlie the universal clock and the constants of nature.

This structure settles a century old paradox of whether particles are
waves or point-like bits of matter. They are wave structures in space.
There is nothing but space. As Clifford speculated 100 years ago, matter
is simply, "undulations in the fabric of space".'
