It is shown that the Lorentz condition which is a conservation law on the electromagnetic four-vector-density A, plus the Lorentz transformation, taken together, are equivalent to the microscopic Maxwell's equations.
在这篇文章的第一部分,我们讨论了两个变化的麦克斯韦方程组,已在早期的工作-一类非线性麦克斯韦理论与明确的伽利略限制(和相应的广义杨米尔斯方程),和线性修改的动机耦合的电磁势与一定的非线性薛定谔方程。在最后一节中,我们将重温洛伦兹的一个旧思想,写出麦克斯韦方程组,以证明这样一种理论:同性电荷之间的排斥静电力与异性电荷之间的吸引静电力的大小根本不同。我们详细阐述了洛伦兹的描述,通过电和磁场强度,其控制方程分为两个完全相对论性的麦克斯韦系统-一个描述普通的电磁,和其他描述一个普遍的吸引力或排斥力的长程力。如果这样的力不能被已知的物理原理{ \it a priori}排除,那么它的大小应该通过实验来确定或界定。如果它真的存在,那么有趣的可能性就超出了洛伦兹早期关于它与(牛顿)引力的关系的猜想。
The least action principle is established for the dynamics of a test particle in a dilaton-Maxwell background. These dynamics and background are invariant under the action of the dilatation transformation; explicit form of the corresponding generalization of the Lorentz force is established for the considered model. On a stationary background, we have found the integral of motion of the energy type. This integral is used to resolve the radial dynamics of test particles in a spherically symmetric electrostatic background.
We show that if we start with the free Dirac Lagrangian, and demand local phase invariance, assuming the total phase coming from two independent contributions associated with the charge and mass degrees of freedom of charged Dirac particles, then we are forced to introduce two massless independent vector fields for charged Dirac particles that generate all of electrodynamics and gravitodynamics of Heaviside's Gravity of 1893 or Maxwellian Gravity and specify the charge and mass currents produced by charged Dirac particles. From this approach we found: (1) a new set of Maxwell-Lorentz equations…
We discuss the modified Maxwell action of a $K_{F}$-type Lorentz symmetry breaking theory and present a solution of Maxwell equations derived in the cases of linear and elliptically polarized electromagnetic waves in the vacuum of CPT-even Lorentz violation. We show in this case the Lorentz violation has the effect of changing the amplitude of one component of the magnetic field, while leaving the electric field unchanged, leading to non-orthogonal propagation of eletromagnetic fields and dependence of the eccentricity on $κ$-term. Further, we exhibit numerically the consequences of this effec…
The Proof that Maxwell Equations with the 3D E and B are not Covariant upon the Lorentz Transformations but upon the Standard Transformations. The New Lorentz Invariant Field Equations
Here we discuss the presence of CPT-even Lorentz violation (LV) in the presence of a deformed Heisenberg algebra that leads to a minimum length (ML). We consider the case of a Maxwell lagrangian modified by the presence of a $K_{F}$ CPT-even LV theory and ML. We then derive a set of modified Maxwell equations in the cases of LV and ML and only ML. We verified that in the case of electromagnetic waves in the vacuum the presence of ML does not change the consequences of LV. On the other hand, in a material media ML changes the whole set of equations that can lead to important effects with respec…
Adopting Schwinger's formalism for inferring Maxwell-Lorentz equations (MLEs) and combining three ingredients: (i) the laws of gravitostatics, (ii) the Galileo-Newton principle of relativity and (iii) existence of gravitational waves which travel in vacuum with a finite speed $c_g$, we inferred two sets of gravito-Maxwell-Lorentz Equations (g-MLEs). One of these sets corresponds to Heaviside's Gravity of 1893 and the other set corresponds to what we call Maxwellian Gravity (MG). HG and MG are mere two mathematical representations of a single physical theory called Heaviside-Maxwellian Gravity …
Adopting two independent approaches (a) Lorentz-invariance of physical laws and (b) local phase invariance of quantum field theory applied to the Dirac Lagrangian for massive electrically neutral Dirac particles, we rediscovered the fundamental field equations of Heaviside Gravity (HG) of 1893 and Maxwellian Gravity (MG), which look different from each other due to a sign difference in some terms of their respective field equations. However, they are shown to represent two mathematical representations of a single physical theory of vector gravity that we name here as Heaviside-Maxwellian Gravi…
In this paper we develop a framework allowing a natural extension of the Lorentz transformations. To begin, we show that by expanding conventional four-dimensional spacetime to eight-dimensions that a natural generalization is indeed obtained. We then find with these generalized coordinate transformations acting on Maxwell's equations that the electromagnetic field transformations are nevertheless unchanged. We find further, that if we assume the absence of magnetic monopoles, in accordance with Maxwell's theory, our generalized transformations are then restricted to be the conventional ones. …
The kinematics of pre-Maxwell electrodynamics is examined and interpretations of these fields is found through an examination of the associated Lorentz force and the structure of the energy-momentum tensor.
We derive the Abraham-Lorentz-Dirac (ALD) equation in the framework of the electrodynamic theory associated with Stueckelberg manifestly covariant canonical mechanics. In this framework, a particle worldline is traced out through the evolution of an event $x^μ(τ)$. By admitting unconstrained commutation relations between the positions and velocities, the associated electromagnetic gauge fields are in general dependent on the parameter $τ$, which plays the role of time in Newtonian mechanics. Standard Maxwell theory emerges from this system as a $τ$-independent equilibrium limit. In this paper,…
It is well known that the field equations of teleparallel theory which is equivalent to general relativity (TEGR) completely agree with the field equation of general relativity (GR). However, TEGR has six extra degrees of freedom which spoil the true physics. These extra degrees are related to the local Lorentz transformation. In this study, we give three different tetrads of flat horizon space-time that depend only on the radial coordinate. One of these tetrads contains an arbitrary function which comes from local Lorentz transformation. We show by explicate calculations that this arbitrary f…
The development of relational electromagnetism after Gauss appears to stop around 1870. Maxwell recognised relational electromagnetism as mathematically equivalent to his own formulae and called for an explanation of why so different conceptions have such a large part in common. We reconstruct relational electromagnetism guided by the No Arbitrariness Principle. Lorenz' idea of electromagnetic waves, together with the "least action principle" proposed by Lorentz are enough to derive Maxwell's equations, the continuity equation and the Lorentz' force. We show that there must be two more symmetr…
It has been said that Maxwell's theory of electromagnetic field is relativistic as Einstein showed that these axioms of Maxwell are all Lorentz invariant. We investigate some issues regarding these results.
