Abstract

A mathematically rigorous model of the interaction of two classical point particles without fields or forces is described. Under certain scaling, it is proved that the trajectories converge to classical ones obtained in the case of the Coulomb or gravitational interaction of two particles. The model resembles the intuitive idea of virtual particles frequently used in quantum particle physics.
