I prefer to quote the relevant passages. << That being said: "By seeking the simplest differential equations which can be obeyed by an affine correlation there is reason to hope that a generalization of the gravitation equations will be found which includes the laws of the electromagnetic field. This hope has in fact been fulfilled although I do not know whether the formal connection so derived can really be regarded as an enrichment of physics as long as it does not yield any new physical connections. In particular a field theory can, to my mind, only be satisfactory when it permits the elementary electrical bodies to be represented as solutions free from singularities." http://nobelprize.org/nobel_prizes/physics/laureates/1921/einstein-lecture.pdf >> << Abstract We consider the consequences of a neutral dark-matter particle with a nonzero electric and/or magnetic dipole moment. Theoretical constraints, as well as constraints from direct searches, precision tests of the standard-model, the cosmic microwave background and matter power spectra, and cosmic gamma rays, are included. We find that a relatively light particle with mass between an MeV and a few GeV and an electric or magnetic dipole as large as ~3 x 10 to the -16 e cm (roughly 1.6 x 10 to the -5 μB) satisfies all experimental and observational bounds. Some of the remaining parameter space may be probed with forthcoming more sensitive direct searches and with the Gamma-Ray Large Area Space Telescope. >> Sigurdson, Kris et al http://authors.library.caltech.edu/5534/1/SIGprd04.pdf http://authors.library.caltech.edu/5534/ Sue... > > Regarding Einstein's last thought in that passage concerning the > requirement of a theory representing charged bodies free of > singularities: From Feynman (#2 below): > > http://prola.aps.org/pdf/RMP/v21/i3/p425_1 > > "(1) There is no such concept as "the" field, an independent entity > with degrees of freedom of its own > (2) There is no action of an elementary charge upon itself and > consequently no problem of an infinity of energy of the > electromagnetic field. > (3) The symmetry between past and future in the prescription for the > fields is not a mere logical possibility, as in the usual theory, but > a postulational requirement."
