On the relativistic transformation of electromagnetic fields.
April 1, 2004... By investigating the motion of a point charge in an electrostatic and in a magnetostatic field, it is shown that the relativistic transformation of electromagnetic fields leads to ambiguous results. The necessity for developing an...

A derivation of two homogenous Maxwell equations.
April 1, 2004... We present a theoretical derivation of two homogenous Maxwell equations, based on Stokes theorem for Minkowski space tensors. A more general equation is also derived for the case of a field-strength tensor which is not antisymmetric....

The Faraday induction law in covariant ether theories.
April 1, 2004... The non-invariance of the Faraday induction law, revealed in [1] through calculation of an e.m.f. along a mathematical line, was further analyzed for integration over a conducting closed circuit within special relativity theory [2]. Now this...

The electromagnetic form of the Dirac electron theory.
April 1, 2004... In the present paper it is shown that the Dirac electron theory can be represented with the special form of the Maxwell theory, if the Dirac wave function is identified with the plane electromagnetic wave in some specific way. This...

Conjugate fields and symmetries.
April 1, 2004... The symmetry of opposite properties is the fundamental law of the Universe and the binary field of conjugate real numbers (parameters), related to opposite properties, reflects this law. The opposite algebras of signs for components of the...

Diffusion of selforganized Brownian particles in the Michelson-Morley experiment.
April 1, 2004... The phenomenon of the constant light velocity could be explained classically using the concept of the diffusion of selforganized structures of Brownian particles. In this contribution the length of both arms of the Michelson-Morley instrument...

Comments on Montgomery's paper on electrodynamics.
April 1, 2004... "Hence the production of an induced current requires a relative motion of the disk and the external circuit, and not as one might expect a relative motion of the disk and the magnet," H. Montgomery wrote recently in the European Journal of...
