Abstract

Let us take stock of the all the results obtained in the preceding chapters, regarding both the spherical charge shell and the charge dumbbell. Table 10.1 shows the calculated values of the electromagnetic mass for these models in the various situations considered. It is interesting that one has to make a distinction between longitudinal and transverse motion for the charge dumbbell. Longitudinal motion refers to the fact that the velocity is along the system axis, while transverse motion implies that the velocity is perpendicular to the system axis.
