Since a classical charged point particle radiates energy and momentum it is argued that there must be a radiation reaction force. Here we present an action for the Maxwell-Lorentz without self interactions model, where each particle only…
As shown in the experiment of She {\it et al.} [Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 101}, 243601 (2008)], a weak laser beam sent through a vertically hanging fiber exerts a transverse force and produces a lateral displacement of the fiber's lower end.…
Conservation of energy and momentum in the classical theory of radiating electrons has been a challenging problem since its inception. We propose a formulation of classical electrodynamics in Hamiltonian form that satisfies the Maxwell…
Recently Pieplow and Henkel (PH) (NJP \textbf{15} (2013) 023027) presented a new fully covariant theory of the Casimir friction force acting on small neutral particle moving parallel to flat surface. We compare results of this theory with…
Equation of motion of an uncharged arbitrarily shaped dust particle under the effects of (stellar) electromagnetic radiation and thermal emission is derived. The resulting relativistically covariant equation of motion is expressed in terms…
It is shown that the well-known disparity in classical electrodynamics between the power losses calculated from the radiation reaction and that from Larmor's formula, is succinctly understood when a proper distinction is made between…
We derive the radiation reaction by taking into account that the acceleration of the charge is caused by the interaction with some heavy source particle. In the non relativistic case this leads, in contrast to the usual approach,…
We calculate the electrostatic self-force on an electric dipole in the spacetime generated by a static, thin, infinite and straight cosmic string. The electric dipole is held fixed in different configurations, namely, parallel,…
Flaws and ambiguities are pointed out upon examining the comment attempting to solve a problem as raised recently --- the currently accepted formulation of electromagnetic radiation of an accelerated charge violates the principle of…
In the derivation of synchrotron radiation formulas it has been assumed that the pitch angle of a charge remains constant during the radiation process. However from the radiation reaction formula, while the component of the velocity vector…
When the parameters of electron - extreme power laser interaction enter the regime of dominated radiation reaction, the electron dynamics changes qualitatively. The adequate theoretical description of this regime becomes crutially important…
We present two results in the treatment of self-force of accelerating bodies. If the total force on an extended rigid object is calculated from the change of momentum summed over planes of simultaneity of successive rest frames, then we…
In this work the explicit solution of the electronic plasma diffusion with radiation reaction force, under the action of an exponential decay external electric field is given. The electron dynamics is described by a classical generalized…
The radiation reaction fields are calculated for an accelerated changing dipole in scalar and electromagnetic radiation fields. The acceleration reaction is shown to alter the damping of a time varying dipole in the EM case, but not the…
In this paper, we present the guiding-center transformation of the radiation-reaction force of a classical point charge traveling in a nonuniform magnetic field. The transformation is valid as long as the gyroradius of the charged particles…
Physics of the Poynting-Robertson (P-R) effect is discussed and compared with the statements published in the past thirty years. Relativistically covariant formulation reveals the essence of the P-R effect and points out to nonphysical…
As a consequence of motions driven by external forces, self-fields originate within an electron bunch, which are different from the static case. In the case of magnetic external forces acting on an ultrarelativistic beam, the longitudinal…
Standard formulae of classical electromagnetism for the forces between electric charges in motion derived from retarded potentials are compared with those obtained from a recently developed relativistic classical electrodynamic theory with…
It is shown that a newly derived "exact expression" for radiation of an accelerated charge in the recent literature is simply incorrect, having arisen because of a wrong relativistic transformation of the distance parameter. The ensuing…
The dynamics of hard-core interacting Brownian particles in an external potential field is studied in one dimension. Using the Jepsen line we find a very general and simple formula relating the motion of the tagged center particle, with the…
