Excerpt from A Theory of Gravitation, and Related Phenomena In explaining the phenomena of inertia, electric currents, magnetism, chemical affinity, and radiant energy, the above alternative assumptions concerning the character of the distortion lead to essentially similar lines of reasoning, but the treatment on the assumption of radial distortion is very much simpler. For this reason it is used here. In the case of static electricity only the assumption of circular distortion, opposite in direction in the two kinds of electric elements, will explain the facts. The extension of the theory to static electricity is left for future treatment. It must be remembered, however, that the development of the theory on the basis of radial distortion differs only in detail, not in principle, from that on the basis of circular distortion. The Atom. - The atom is assumed to consist, at least in part, of a Saturnian system of electrons in rapid orbital motion. It will be shown that such orbital motion, with the assumptions here made, would give rise to a pressure in the ether such as Newton showed would account for gravitation. Physicists are agreed that the phenomena of inertia, the electric current, magnetism, and possibly also chemical affinity are probably related to each other in such manner that when we find the explanation of one of them this explanation will also throw light on the others. It will be seen in what follows that the theory of gravitation here presented appears also to offer suggestions as to the nature of these other forces, as well as a possible explanation of them. Inertia. Let c, Fig. Ia, be an electron stationary in the ether. At a certain undetermined distance from the center of this electron (equal to what we may call its radius) we may assume a maximum radial distortion of the ether, and we may regard the spherical shell at this distance as the surface of the electron.

Le Sage's theory of gravitation is a kinetic theory of gravity originally proposed by Nicolas Fatio de Duillier in 1690 and later by Georges-Louis Le Sage in 1748. The theory proposed a mechanical explanation for Newton's gravitational force in terms of streams of tiny unseen particles (which Le Sage called ultra-mundane corpuscles) impacting all material objects from all directions.
