A new spinmotive force is predicted in ferromagnets with spin-orbit coupling. By extending the theory of spinmotive force, we show that a time-varying electric field can induce a spinmotive force with static and uniform magnetization. This…

We discuss, in the context of classical electrodynamics with a Lorentz invariant cut-off at short distances, the self-force acting on a point charged particle. It follows that the electromagnetic mass of the point charge occurs in the…

The self-force of a point charge moving on a rectilinear trajectory is obtained, with no need of any explicit removal of infinities, as the negative of the time rate of change of the momentum of its retarded self-field.
