Relativistic Exponential Gravitation and Exponential Potential of Electric Charge

  • Published:
Foundations of Physics Aims and scope Submit manuscript

We present theories of gravitation and electric potentials with exponential dependence on the reciprocal distance. In the context of this kind of electric potential we investigate the dynamics of a relativistic electron interacting with a proton.
