This is why I'm avoiding pure math --- axioms. There's no such equivalent thing in science as an axiom. It leaves pure math too open, almost like a programming language. Probably not a good idea for me to go into pure math if I don't understand any of the axioms, anyway; and, anyway, 1) the...

The g-factor of an electron (-2.002) added to the g-factor of a proton (-3.826) approximately equals the negative g-factor value of a proton (5.585). Ge + Gn = -5.828 Is there any significance in this?
Since the permeability of free space is a measure of how free space resists a magnetic field, shouldn't it be inversely proportional like the permittivity of free space with respect to the electric field?

I was thinking about the 1/2 in KE = 1/2*m*v2
