与相对论争议有关的例子和评论

Examples and Comments Related to Relativity Controversies

Timothy H. Boyer

摘要:

最近,曼苏里普尔对相对论电磁理论中的洛伦兹力的有效性提出了质疑。在这里,我们提出了一些非常简单的点电荷系统,通过顺序v^{2}/c^{2},以澄清一些方面的相对论性的争议,无论是旧的和新的。结合例子,我们证实了相对论性守恒律的有效性。相对论的例子清楚地表明,外力可以在一个惯性系中产生零扭矩,而在另一个惯性系中产生非零扭矩,并且角动量守恒在两个惯性系中都成立。我们还讨论了一个相对论性的点电荷模型的磁矩和评论的相互作用的点电荷和磁矩。Mansuripur声称洛伦兹力和相对论不相容,这被认为是无效的。

英文摘要:

Recently Mansuripur has called into question the validity of the Lorentz force in connection with relativistic electromagnetic theory. Here we present some very simple point-charge systems treated through order v^{2}/c^{2} in order to clarify some aspects of relativistic controversies both old and new. In connection with the examples, we confirm the validity of the relativistic conservation laws. The relativistic examples make clear that external forces may produce a vanishing torque in one inertial frame and yet produce a non-zero torque in another inertial frame, and that the conservation of angular momentum will hold in both frames. We also discuss a relativistic point-charge model for a magnetic moment and comment on the interaction of a point charge and a magnetic moment. Mansuripur's claims of incompatibiltiy between the Lorentz force and relativity are seen to be invalid.
