Thanks, and would the electron basically shrink to infinitely small size because of relativity contraction?And how it would lag behind the light if it is just 10 to the minus 60th power m/s slower than light, as then the distance that it would lag is much lower than Planck lenght?Would it appear to be going at the speed of light compared to the light beam that was emmited at exactly the same moment as the electron given that you cannot have distances shorter than the Planck's lenght, or would it just appear to be lagging 1.6 × 10 to the −35th power (exactly the Planck lenght) of metres behind the light beam?

Or would it just collapse into a black hole?I remember something from a science book about that when you have more than certain stupendous amount of energy in a small space, it would instantly create an event horizon and collapse into a black hole.

BTW, if the BH that can be manifactured in LHC by proton collisions at high speed would last about 10 to the -100th power of seconds, does mean that it would disappear instanteously as there cannot be shorter time moment than Planck time?

Are these planck constants the fundamental quantitizations in physics or are they simply the scalles beyond which we don't know how it will behave?
