A “fundamental emitter” may be compared to a “light sponge”, it contains “photons” (or the energy equivalent of photons). If it is “squeezed” (stressed) the emitter will reduce in size (like a squeezed sponge) and some photons will be “squeezed out” (emitted).There are two types of stress: pressure and shear. Both types are required to “activate” (squeeze) the emitter. Pressure is associated with a distribution of force over a surface area, and shear is associated with a sectional area.Assume the emitter is spherical, while under stress it gets smaller, so the radius is changing. The instantaneous rate of change of the radius must have an exact speed: one quarter of the light constant.The emitter may be “inactive” (not radiating) having an “inactive radius” (initial radius). If it is radiating, then it has an “active radius”. The “radius ratio” (active/inactive) must agree with length contraction.Stress may be represented as a ratio of force and area. Force is represented as a vector, and area may also be represented as a vector giving stress as a tensor. It is convenient to simplify stress, representing it as a vector (in 3D).If four “radiant rules” are true, then the emitter activates (shrinks) releasing photons with a “brightness” which may be calculated.Does an active emitter shrink?See attachment for some math.
