Electrodynamics with quaternionic mass
Abstract
New electrodynamics with quaternionic mass is found to yields interesting results. The quaternionic mass involves longitudinal as well as transverse (vector) masses. Because of these two masses, an application of a magnetic field in a system induces electric charge and current densities in the system. Frank Wilczek axion electrodynamics is derived from this new electrodynamics bearing a quantum signature. A new version of Maxwell-Proca equations that are invariant under the gauge transformations is derived from the new electrodynamics. New electric and magnetic fields that are different from the standard formalism are proposed to describe massive electrodynamics. Axion electrodynamics are shown to be equivalent to Proca electrodynamics. The energy and momentum conservation equations are not influenced by the quaternionic mass.
