Constants

  • μ0 = Magnetic Permeability of Free Space
  • ϵ0 = Electric Permittivity of Free Space
  • kB = Boltzmann's constant
  • α = Fine Structure Constant
  • c = Speed of Light

Quantities

  • q = point charge
  • λq = linear charge density (for continuous charge)
  • σq = surface charge density (for continuous charge)
  • ρq = volume charge density (for continuous charge)
  • m = mass
  • ρ = volume mass density

Dislocations

  • r = position of a charge q at time t, when it receives a light signal from q that was emitted earlier at time t=t|rr|/c
  • drdt = velocity of a charge q at time t, when it receives a light signal from q that was emitted earlier at time t=t|rr|/c
  • d2rdt2 = acceleration of a charge q at time t, when it receives a light signal from q that was emitted earlier at time t=t|rr|/c
  • r = position a charge q was at the retarded time t=t|rr|/c, when it emitted a light signal which has now reached q at position r and time t
  • drdt = velocity a charge q was at the retarded time t=t|rr|/c, when it emitted a light signal which has now reached q at position r and time t
  • d2rdt2 = acceleration a charge q was at the retarded time t=t|rr|/c, when it emitted a light signal which has now reached q at position r and time t

Functions Composed of Physical Expressions

Functions for a point charge q

The electric scalar potential φ at (r,t) due to a point charge q at (r,t) is:

The magnetic vector potential A at (r,t) due to a point charge q which had a velocity v at (r,t) is:

A(r,r,v)=q4π ϵ0constant×1|rr|proximity×v/c2dislocation

A(r,r,v)=μ0 q4πconstant×1|rr|proximity×vdislocation
