Radiation from a Charge Uniformly Accelerated for All Time

General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology 2015-06-25 v1

Abstract

A recent paper of Singal [Gen. Rel. Grav. 27 (1995), 953-967] argues that a uniformly accelerated particle does not radiate, in contradiction to the consensus of the research literature over the past 30 years. This note points out some questionable aspects of Singal's argument and shows how similar calculations can lead to the opposite conclusion.
