Electromagnetic and gravitational radiation in all dimensions: A classical field theory treatment

Geometrie Unification of Classical Gravitational and Electromagnetic Interaction in Five Dimensions: a Modified Approach

A unification of the gravitational with the electromagnetic interaction within a classical framework is proposed. It is based on a Fs-geometry, with x^ — qjm. The sole source term is mechanical stress energy, positioned along X5. The trajectories of testbodies are placed in V4 (xo = const)-slices. The final field equation couples a geometric G-tensor to mechanical stress energy, its momentum wi...

Acceleration and Classical Electromagnetic Radiation

Classical radiation from an accelerated charge is reviewed along with the reciprocal topic of accelerated observers detecting radiation from a static charge. This review commemerates Bahram Mashhoon's 60 th birthday.

Classical Electromagnetic Field Theory in the Presence of Magnetic Sources

Using two new well defined 4-dimensional potential vectors, we formulate the classical Maxwell’s field theory in a form which has manifest Lorentz covariance and SO(2) duality symmetry in the presence of magnetic sources. We set up a consistent Lagrangian for the theory. Then from the action principle we get both Maxwell’s equation and the equation of motion of a dyon moving in the electromagne...

Electromagnetic radiation induced by a gravitational wave

Gravitational radiation in d > 4 from effective field theory

Some years ago, a new powerful technique, known as the Classical Effective Field Theory, was proposed to describe classical phenomena in gravitational systems. Here we show how this approach can be useful to investigate theoretically important issues, such as gravitational radiation in any spacetime dimension. In particular, we derive for the first time the Einstein-Infeld-Hoffman Lagrangian an...
