The power radiated by a moving charge is given by Larmor's formula which can be derived by integrating the Li\'enard-Wiechert potential over the whole past history of the charge. However, extracting the same result from the…
An unexpected prediction of classical electrodynamics is that a charge can accelerate before a force is applied. We would expect that a preaccelerated charge would radiate so that there would be spontaneous preradiation, an acausal…

The Lorentz-Dirac radiation reaction formula predicts that the position shift of a charged particle due to the radiation reaction is of first order in acceleration if it undergoes a small acceleration. A semi-classical calculation shows…
We show that the Lorentz-Dirac equation is not an unavoidable consequence of energy-momentum conservation for a point charge. What follows solely from conservation laws is a less restrictive equation already obtained by Honig and Szamosi.…
Accelerated charges emit electromagnetic radiation and the consequent energy-momentum loss alters their trajectory. This phenomenon is known as radiation reaction and the Landau-Lifshitz (LL) equation is the classical equation of motion of…
An accelerating electric charge coupled to its own electromagnetic (EM) field both emits radiation and experiences the radiation's reaction as a (self-)force. Considering the system from an Effective Field Theory perspective, and using the…

Radiation reaction in classical electrodynamics is traditionally described by the Lorentz Abraham Dirac equation (LAD), whose point particle formulation leads to well known difficulties including runaway solutions, pre acceleration, and the…
The Abraham-Lorentz-Dirac equation for a point electron, while suffering from runaway solutions and an acausal response to external forces, is compatible with the optical theorem. We show that a theory of radiative reaction that allows for…
The radiative response of the classical electron is commonly described by the Lorentz-Abraham-Dirac (LAD) equation. Dirac's derivation of this equation is based on energy and momentum conservation laws and on regularization of the field…
An accelerated charged particle emits electromagnetic radiation. If the driving force is sufficiently strong, the radiated energy becomes comparable to the kinetic energy of the particle and the back-action of the emitted radiation…
