For more than a century the Abraham-Lorentz equation has generally been regarded as the correct description of the dynamics of a charged particle. However, there are pathological solutions of the Abraham-Lorentz equation in which a particle…
We are concerned with the study of the system of coupled equations of motion for a system of two-level atoms interacting with a single-mode field in the laser cavity on resonance. The passage from the equation of motion to the Lorenz…
We obtain by invariance arguments the relativistic and non-relativistic invariant dynamical equations of a classical model of a spinning electron. We apply the formalism to a particular classical model which satisfies Dirac's equation when…
We study the behavior in the remote past and future of solutions of an equation of motion for charged particles proposed by F. Rohrlich, for the special case in which the motion is in one spatial dimension. We show that if an external force…
The Drude-Lorentz model for the motion of electrons in a solid is a classical model in statistical mechanics, where electrons are represented as point particles bouncing on a fixed system of obstacles (the atoms in the solid). Under some…
We extend the classical formulation of the dynamical friction effect on a test star by Chandrasekhar to the case of relativistic velocities and velocity distributions also accounting for post-Newtonian corrections to the gravitational…
We consider relativistic charged particle dynamics and relativistic magnetohydrodynamics using symplectic structures and actions given in terms of co-adjoint orbits of the Poincar\'e group. The particle case is meant to clarify some points…
The claim by Rohrlich that the Abraham-Lorentz-Dirac equation is not the correct equation for a classical point charge is shown to be incorrect and it is pointed out that the equation which he proposes is the equation {\underline{derived}}…
The study of vortex dynamics using a variational formulation has an extensive history and a rich literature. The standard Hamiltonian function that describes the dynamics of interacting point vortices of constant strength is the…
A broad class of forces, P, is identified, for which the Abraham-Lorentz-Dirac (ALD) and Newton-like equations have solutions in common. Moreover, these solutions do not present pre-acceleration or escape into infinity (runaway behavior).…
We consider the three-dimensional Dirac equation in spherical coordinates with coupling to static electromagnetic potential. The space components of the potential have angular (non-central) dependence such that the Dirac equation is…
This paper presents an alternative {\it relativistic nonlinear} approach to the vacuum case of classical electrodynamics. Our view is based on the understanding that the corresponding differential equations should be dynamical in nature.…
We speculate on the role of relativistic versions of delayed differential equations in fundamental physics. Relativistic invariance implies that we must consider both advanced and retarded terms in the equations, so we refer to them as…
It is underlined that the Lienard-Wiechert solutions indicate that after the external force is instantly removed from a small charged particle, the field in its close neighborhood becomes a Lorentz boosted Coulomb field. It suggests that…
We take a Dirac field non-minimally coupled to the gravitational field within the framework of the Poincar\'e gauge theory of gravity with torsion and curvature. We study the subcase of "weak" gravity, that is, the gravitational Lagrangian…
We explore the connection between the symmetry transformations and conservation laws for the Klein-Gordon and Dirac fields on the lattice. The generators of the space time translations and Lorentz boost (defined on the lattice) are…
We show that relativistic dynamics can be approached without using conservation laws (conservation of momentum, of energy and of the centre of mass). Our approach avoids collisions that are not easy to teach without mnemonic aids. The…
We comment on the discretization of the Dirac equation using finite element spaces of differential forms. In order to treat perturbations by low order terms, such as those arizing from electromagnetic fields, we develop some abstract…
We reconsider the variational integration of optimal control problems for mechanical systems based on a direct discretization of the Lagrange-d'Alembert principle. This approach yields discrete dynamical constraints which by construction…
Applications of the Dirac equation with an anomalous magnetic moment are considered for description of characteristics of electrons, muons and quarks. The Dirac equation with four-dimensional scalar and vector potentials is reduced to a…
