On a metric measure space $X$ that supports a regular, strongly local resistance form we consider a magnetic energy form that corresponds to the magnetic Laplacian for a particle confined to $X$. We provide sufficient conditions for…
In this comment it is argued that the argument for a unique determination of the electromagnetic potentials in classical electrodynamics in [1] is flawed. To the contrary the "gauge freedom" of the electromagnetic potentials has proven as…
As documented by textbooks, the teaching of electromagnetic induction in university and high school courses is primarily based on what Feynman labeled as the ``flux rule'', downgrading it from the status of physical law. However, Maxwell…
A wire that conducts an electric current will give rise to circular magnetic field (the \O{}rsted magnetic field), which can be calculated using the Maxwell-Ampere equation. For wires with diameters in the macroscopic scale, the…
We present a new method for evolving the equations of magnetohydrodynamics (both Newtonian and relativistic) that is capable of maintaining a divergence-free magnetic field ($\nabla \cdot \mathbf{B} = 0$) on adaptively refined, conformally…
Understanding the dynamics of magnetic vortices has emerged as an important challenge regarding the recent development of spin-torque vortex oscillators. Either micromagnetic simulations or the analytical Thiele equation approach are…
We give a complete quantum analysis of the Aharonov-Bohm (AB) magnetic phase shift involving three entities, the electron, the charges constituting the solenoid current, and the vector potential. The usual calculation supposes that the…
In the original setting of the Aharonov-Bohm, the gauge invariant physical longitudinal mode of the vector potential, which is written by the gauge invariant physical current $(-e)\bar{\psi}{\boldsymbol \gamma} \psi$, gives the desired…
Neutral particles subject to artificial gauge potentials can behave as charged particles in magnetic fields. This fascinating premise has led to demonstrations of one-way waveguides, topologically protected edge states and Landau levels for…
We give an argument that magnetic monopoles should not exist. It is based on the concept of the index of a vector field. The thrust of the argument is that indices of vector fields are invariants of space-time orientation and of coordinate…
We explore the ground state energies of the neutral and charged vector $K^{*}$ mesons in the external abelian magnetic field of QCD scale using overlap fermions. We attempt to calculate the magnetic moment and the magnetic dipole…
It is well-known that an electric charge under a uniform magnetic field has a bidimensional motion if its initial position and velocity are perpendicular to this magnetic field. Although some constants of motion, as the energy and angular…
It is shown that a nonrelativistic mechanical system involving a general nonrelativistic potential V(|r1-r2|) between point particles at positions r1 and r2 can be extended to a Lagrangian system which is invariant under Lorentz…
In the present work, we study the classical behavior of an electric dipole in presence of an external uniform magnetic field. We derive equations and constants of motion from the Lagrangian formulation. We obtain an infinitely periodic…
Even though Faraday's Law is a dynamical law that describes how changing $\bf{E}$ and $\bf {B}$ fields influence each other, by introducing a vector potential $A_{\mu}$ according to $F_{\mu\nu}=\partial_{\mu}A_{\nu}-\partial_{\nu}A_{\mu}$…
In a watt balance experiment, separate measurements of magnetic force and induced electric potential in a conductor in a magnetic field allow for a virtual comparison between mechanical and electrical powers, which leads to and an accurate…
A thoughtless treatment of Maxwell's equations can lead to the interpretation of the existence of a causal relationship between their different terms and, therefore, that an electric field that varies in time generates a magnetic one and…
Two results support the idea that the scalar and vector potentials in the Lorenz gauge can be considered to be physical quantities: (i) they separately satisfy the properties of causality and propagation at the speed of light and not imply…
In this paper we introduce the axial gauge field to the framework of the quantum kinetic theory with vector gauge field in the massless limit. Treating axial-gauge field on an equal footing with the vector-gauge field, we construct a…
The potential concept that is successful in classical electrodynamics should also be applicable to the nonlinear electromagnetic forces acting on matter. The obvious method of determining these potentials should be provided by Helmholtz's…
