The Particle as a Statistical Ensemble of Events in Stueckelberg-Horwitz-Piron Electrodynamics
Stueckelberg-Horwitz-Piron (SHP) electrodynamics formalizes the distinction between coordinate time (measured by laboratory clocks) and chronology (temporal ordering) by defining 4D spacetime events xμ as functions of an external evolution parameter τ. Classical spacetime events xμ(τ) evolve as τ grows monotonically, tracing out particle worldlines dynamically and inducing the five U(1) gauge p...
متن کاملElectrostatics in Stueckelberg-Horwitz electrodynamics
In this paper, we study fundamental aspects of electrostatics as a special case in Stueckelberg-Horwitz electromagnetic theory. In this theory, spacetime events xμ(τ) evolve in an unconstrained 8-dimensional phase space, interacting through five τ-dependent gauge fields induced by the current densities associated with their evolutions. The chronological time τ was introduced as an independent e...
متن کاملThe Conformal Metric Associated with the U ( 1 ) Gauge of the Stueckelberg - Schrödinger Equation
We review the relativistic classical and quantum mechanics of Stueckelberg, and introduce the compensation fields necessary for the gauge covariance of the Stueckelberg-Schrödinger equation. To achieve this, one must introduce a fifth, Lorentz scalar, compensation field, in addition to the four vector fields which compensate the action of the space-time derivatives. A generalized Lorentz force ...
متن کاملThe Stueckelberg Field
We first review the Stueckelberg field in the massive Abelian gauge theory. We then extend this idea to the standard model, stueckelberging the hypercharge U(1) and thus giving a mass to the photon. This introduces an infrared regulator for the photon in the standard electroweak theory, along with a modification of the Weinberg angle accompanied by a plethora of new effects. Finally, we review ...
متن کاملCould the Classical Relativistic Electron Be a Strange Attractor?
We review the formulation of the problem of the electromagnetic self-interaction of a relativistic charged particle in the framework of the manifestly covariant classical mechanics of Stueckelberg, Horwitz, and Piron. The gauge fields of this theory, in general, cause the mass of the particle to change. We show that the nonlinear Lorentz force equation for the self-interaction resulting from th...
