Galilean electrodynamics: covariant formulation and Lagrangian
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we construct a single Lagrangian for both limits of Galilean electrodynamics. The framework relies on covariant formalism used in describing Newton-Cartan geometry. We write down the conformal algebra and its representation formalism. also show that is invariant under d = 4 calculate energy-momentum tensor.

Covariant Majorana Formulation of Electrodynamics
We construct an explicit covariant Majorana formulation of Maxwell electromagnetism which does not make use of vector 4-potential. This allows to write a “Dirac” equation for the photon containing all the known properties of it. In particular, the spin and (intrinsic) boost matrices are derived and the helicity properties of the photon are studied.
متن کاملEinstein’s Investigations of Galilean Covariant Electrodynamics Prior to 1905
Einstein learned from the magnet and conductor thought experiment how to use field transformation laws to extend the covariance of Maxwell’s electrodynamics. If he persisted in his use of this device, he would have found that the theory cleaves into two Galilean covariant parts, each with different field transformation laws. The tension between the two parts reflects a failure not mentioned by ...
متن کاملCovariant Electrodynamics in Vacuum
The generalized Galilei covariant Maxwell equations and their EM field transformations are applied to the vacuum electrodynamics of a charged particle moving with an arbitrary velocity v in an inertial frame with EM carrier (ether) of velocity w. In accordance with the Galilean relativity principle, all velocities have absolute meaning (relative to the ether frame with isotropic light propagati...
متن کاملDecoherence Rates for Galilean Covariant Dynamics
We introduce a measure of decoherence for a class of density operators. For Gaussian density operators in dimension one it coincides with an index used by Morikawa (1990). Spatial decoherence rates are derived for three large classes of the Galilean covariant quantum semigroups introduced by Holevo. We also characterize the relaxation to a Gaussian state for these dynamics and give a theorem fo...
متن کاملNoncommutative Electrodynamics with covariant coordinates
We study Noncommutative Electrodynamics using the concept of covariant coordinates. We propose a scheme for interpreting the formalism and construct two basic examples, a constant field and a plane wave. Superposing these two, we find a modification of the dispersion relation. Our results differ from those obained via the Seiberg-Witten map. PACS: 11.10.Lm, 11.15.-q, 13.40.-f
