This paper has rather a pedagogical meaning. Surprising symmetries in the $(j,0)\oplus (0,j)$ Lorentz group representation space are analyzed. The aim is to draw reader's attention to the possibility of describing the particle world on the…
Resonance plays critical roles in the formation of many physical phenomena, and several methods have been developed for the exploration of resonance. In this work, we propose a new scheme for resonance by solving the Dirac equation in…

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…

We show that the particle states of Maxwell's theory, in $D$ dimensions, can be represented in an infinite number of ways by using different gauge fields. Using this result we formulate the dynamics in terms of an infinite set of duality…
Although relativistic electrodynamics is more than 100 year old, there is one neglected topic in its presentation and application: relativistic transformations of electromagnetic integrals. Whereas in theoretical and applied electrodynamics…
We perform a reduction from three to two spatial dimensions of the physics of a spin-1/2 fermion coupled to the electromagnetic field, by applying Hadamard's method of descent. We consider first the free case, in which motion is determined…

"Electromagnetic mass" where gravitational mass and other physical quantities originate from the electromagnetic field alone has a century long distinguished history. In the introductory chapter we have divided this history into three broad…
