latex should be fixed in message fields aka in homework help, and in quote blocks now

Of course, I mistyped. It should have been, it IS there by absence. I did write, "This PDF shows that a point charge in classical...

Yet the very first sentence of your original post was: which contradicts the Feynman lecture I quoted and is clearly wrong. Are you...

So only after Taylor expanding ##\gamma_v, v\gamma_v, \gamma_w, w\gamma_w## for ##v,w\ll 1## and only keeping terms up to second order...

What Jackson says there regarding discrete charge distributions is (my emphasis added): So the self-energy terms are there in principle...

Absolutely. From Jackson, Classical Electrodynamics 2nd ed. pg. 28 (emphasis added by me): So by definition, the electrostatic field...

Can you please clarify the citation by providing the author, title and page number of the text where this quotation appears? Thanks!

In your attachment you assert: This is certainly true for a point "test charge" with infinitesimal ##q\,##, which by assumption does...

The phenomenological fit is something that should be demonstrated in the publication! We cannot help you with any part of the...

How does this formula compare to the well-verified results from QED? In particular, where does Planck's constant ##h## enter it?

It's apparently hard to separate the possible structure of the electron from the characteristics of the EM field surrounding it. You...

How about non-linear electrodynamics? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Born%E2%80%93Infeld_model

Can you explain what you mean by "(t)he system quantum state is conserved" and in what sense "photons are compressible"?

You state that "intelligence is based in incomplete, multi-valued logic from the get go". Is that simply an assertion or can you cite a...

Actually they do hold the wood pieces together. They're called Cam Lock fasteners: (from...
