Proving DC Current Loop Does Not Radiate w/ Lienard-Wiechert Potential

[QUOTE="Rafa_Tapia, post: 3111416, member: 293623"] [h2]Homework Statement [/h2] Hi guys, on chapter 14 in Jackson's classical electrodynamics, problems 24 asks to prove that a dc current loop does not radiate, starting from Lienard-Wiechert potentials for the individual charges q. The distance between them is \Delta. We should move to the continuous media by considering q->0, \Delta->0 and N->Infty. Then, the fields should go to the known Biot Savart law. The charge's speed is constant but there exists an acceleration.[h2]Homework Equations[/h2] We should use just the Lienard-Wiechert potentials.[h2]The Attempt at a Solution[/h2] I've being trying this problem for a long time with no success. I've moved from q/Delta to a linear charge density and try to see the properties of the potential along the total path. I suppose the contributions should cancel out, but I don't get it for an arbitrary closed path. Has any of you have the solution or at least some hint, it would be of great help! Thanks a lot!
