Role of surface gauging in extended particle interactions: The case for spin

The matter, being extended in space, should be first characterized by a surface of separation from the empty space. This surface cannot be neatly, i.e. purely geometrically, defined. When it comes to extended particles, which thereby are to be considered the fundamental structural units of the matter, the physical evidence points out that they are not even stable: they are in a continuous transformation; and so is their limit of separation from space. The present work describes a concept of extended particle with special emphasis on this limit of separation. It turns out that the properties of inertia, as classically understood, are intrinsically related to the spin properties of quantum origin. Thus, an extended particle model cannot be but holographic when it comes to imbedding it in a physical structure. The spin properties turn out to be essential, inasmuch as they decide the forces of interaction issuing from particles.
