In a way, it looks rather out of date, and it would be easy to skate over it, or even just skip it. And yet all bound state particles we know of today have electromagnetic mass. It is just that we approach the question differently. Today we have multiplets of mesons or baryons, and we have colour symmetry, and broken ?avour symmetry, and we think about mass and energy through Hamiltonians. This book is an invitation to look at all these modern ideas with the help of an old light. Everything here is quite standard theory, in fact, classical electromagnetism for the main part. The reader would be expected to have encountered the theory of elec tromagnetism before, but there is a review of all the necessary results, and nothing sophisticated about the calculations. The reader could be any student of physics, or any physicist, but someone who wouldlike to know more about inertia, and the clas sical precursor of mass renormalisation in quantum ?eld theory. In short, someone who feels it worthwhile to ask why F= ma. | 出版日期 | Book 2010 | 关键词 | Electromagnetic contributions to inertial mass; Electromagnetism; Inertia and self-force; Origins of in | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-642-04785-5 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-642-26225-8 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-642-04785-5Series ISSN 0075-8450 Series E-ISSN 1616-6361 | issn_series | 0075-8450 | copyright | Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2010 |
