Electric charge in hyperbolic motion: the special conformal transformation solution

General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology 2021-03-09 v1

Abstract

As a simple application of special conformal transformations, we derive the electromagnetic field produced by an electric charge in hyperbolic motion. Unlike other purely algebraic derivations, here we develop a more intuitive geometrical description, based on Minkowski diagrams.
