CLASSICAL ELECTRODYNAMICS OF SPINNING PARTICLES.

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

The author considers particles with mass, charge, intrinsic magnetic and electric dipole moments, and intrinsic angular momentum in interaction with a classical electromagnetic field. From this action he derives the equations of motion of the position and intrinsic angular momentum of the particle including the radiation reaction, the wave equations of the fields, the current density, and the energy-momentum and angular momentum of the system. The theory is covariant with respect to the general Lorentz group, is gauge invariant, and contains no divergent integrals.
