Abstract
We present a highly distinct, falsifiable prediction derived from Yarman’s Approach (YA), which is rooted strictly in the law of energy conservation and special relativity. While standard quantum electrodynamics predicts continued Coulomb deflection for ultra-relativistic projectiles, YA reveals a nonlinear suppression of the transverse force in the corpuscular regime, scaling as 1/γ. Consequently, electromagnetic deflection is predicted to vanish entirely at ultra-high energies where γ>>1. Remarkably, we demonstrate that a similar corpuscular equation of motion is algebraically identifiable within the relativistic energy structure underlying the Dirac formulation, having remained unnoticed, most likely due to conventional wave-like assumptions. This predictive framework is strongly supported by the parallel empirical success of YA in predicting the measured non-deflection of high-energy gamma quanta in Earth's gravity. We propose a fixed-target experiment using 1–10 GeV protons incident on a thin gold foil, which is fully executable within existing accelerator facilities to decisively test this foundational boundary of relativistic dynamics.
