Abstract
The stability of a system of charged point particles is proved under the assumption that all negatively charged particles are fermions. A lower bound on the energy is found to be −Aq⅔Nme4ℏ−2, where q is the number of distinct negative species, N the total number of negative particles, m an upper bound for their mass, e an upper bound for the absolute value of the charge on both negative and positive particles, and A is a numerical constant.Keywords
