We study a generalization of a Thomson problem of n particles confined to a sphere and interacting by a 1/r^g potential. It is found that for g \le 1 the electrostatic repulsion expels all the charges to the surface of the sphere. However…
We show that in the case of a uniformly accelerated charge, in its instantaneous rest frame, there is only a radial electric field as the acceleration fields strangely get cancelled at all distances by a transverse term of the velocity…
We demonstrate that charged particles in a sufficiently intense standing wave are compressed toward, and oscillate synchronously at, the maxima of the electric field. This unusual trapping behaviour, which we call 'anomalous radiative…
