4.4. DUALITY AND DECOUPLING OF INTERACTION FIELDS 213


represents the force due to the nonlinear coupling ofgμ νand its dualφ. Formula (4.4.11) can
be approximatively written as

k 0 = 4 × 10 −^18 km−^1 , k 1 = 10 −^57 km−^3.

The formula (4.4.13) shows that a central gravitational field with massMhas an attract-
ing force−k 0 /rin addition to the Newtonian gravitational force. This explains the dark
matter phenomenon. Also there is a repelling forcek 1 r, which explains the dark energy phe-
nomenon; see (Ma and Wang,2014e) for details.


4.4.3 Modified QED model


For the electromagnetic interaction only, the decoupled QED field equations from (4.3.22)
and (4.3.25) are given by


∂ν(∂νAμ−∂μAν)−eJμ=

(4.4.15) ψ= 0 ,


whereβis a dimensionless constant, andJμ=ψ γμψis the current density satisfying


(4.4.16) ∂μJμ= 0.


Equations (4.4.14) and (4.4.15) are the modified QED model. Taking divergence on both
sides of (4.4.14), by (4.4.16) and


∂μ∂ν(∂νAμ−∂μAν) = 0 ,

the equations (4.4.14)-(4.4.15) can be equivalently written as


∂ν(∂νAμ−∂μAν)−eJμ=
