We consider electrogeodesics on which the energy [Formula: see text] in the Reissner–Nordström metric. It is shown that outside the horizon there is exactly one turning point inside the ergoregion for such particles. This entails that such a particle passes through an infinite chain of black–white hole regions or terminates in the singularity. These properties are relevant for two scenarios of high energy collisions in which the presence of white holes is essential.

According to a theory proposed by Dirac one has to picture the vacuum as filled with an infinite number of electrons of negative kinetic energy, the electric density of which is, however, unobservable. One can observe only deviations from this "normal" density which either consist of an addition of electrons in states of positive energy or absence of electrons from some of the negative energy states (positive electrons). The discovery of the positive electron and the observed magnitude of the processes involving it give strong support to this view. This theory, as it stands, however, is not complete because it makes use of infinite quantities which are inadmissible in physical equations. It therefore must be understood (and was meant so by Dirac) to be a physical picture showing a way in which the quantum mechanical equations can probably be modified in order to give account of the positive electron and to solve the difficulty connected with the states of negative energy.
