Dirac's New Electrodynamics

Gravitational waves and electrodynamics: new perspectives

Given the recent direct measurement of gravitational waves (GWs) by the LIGO-VIRGO collaboration, the coupling between electromagnetic fields and gravity have a special relevance since it opens new perspectives for future GW detectors and also potentially provides information on the physics of highly energetic GW sources. We explore such couplings using the field equations of electrodynamics on...

New limit on signals of Lorentz violation in electrodynamics.

We describe the results of an experiment to test for spacetime anisotropy terms that might exist from Lorentz violations. The apparatus consists of a pair of cylindrical superconducting cavity-stabilized oscillators operating in the TM010 mode with one axis east-west and the other vertical. Spatial anisotropy is detected by monitoring the beat frequency at the sidereal rate and its first harmon...

On The New Symmetries in Electrodynamics and Quantum Theory

The generalized definition of symmetry is formulated. Application of this definition for symmetric analysis of theoretical physics equations is considered. The version of electrodynamics is constructed permitting the faster-than-light motions of particles with real masses. Some elements of physical interpretation of the proposed theory are presented.

The New Charged Massless States of Quantum Electrodynamics

Quantum Electrodynamics can be formulated as the theory of an antisymmetric tensor gauge field. In this formulation the topologi-cal current of this field appears as an additional source for the electromagnetic field.The topological charge therefore acts physically as an electric charge. The topologically nontrivial, electrically charged, sector contains massless states orthogonal to the vacuum...
