A New Case for Direct Action
نویسنده
چکیده
An obstacle to the development of direct action version of electromagnetism was that in the end it failed to fulfill its initial promise of avoiding the problem of infinite Coulomb self-energy in the Maxwell theory of the classical point charge. This paper suggests a small but significant modification of the traditional direct action theory which overcomes that obstacle. Self-action is retained but the associated energy is rendered finite and equal to zero in the special case of null motion.

Purpose: One of the most effective ways to promote a culture of reading around the world is to encourage reading in childhood. However, children’s reading faces many challenges, including non-targeted educational policies, increasing children's attention to cyberspace, lack of special libraries, the expensiveness of books, and so on. Traditional measures have not been able to solve the problems...
متن کاملAn Innovative Rigid Tray Technique as a New Alternative Matrix System for Buildup of Severely Damaged Endodontically Treated Teeth (A Case Report)
Direct restoration of severely damaged endodontically treated teeth (ETT) using available and conventional and current matrix systems is sometimes impractical and in some clinical cases is impossible. The aim of this paper is to introduce and describe a new matrix system based on Rigid Tray Technique (RTT) for dealing with such difficult clinical cases.

There is growing international concern about the risks posed by direct-to-consumer advertising (DTCA) of prescription pharmaceuticals, including via the internet. Recent trade agreements negotiated by the United States, however, incorporate provisions that may constrain national regulation of DTCA. Some provisions explicitly mention DTCA; others enable foreign investors to seek compensation if ...
متن کاملA new reduced mathematical model to simulate the action potential in end plate of skeletal muscle fibers
Usually mathematicians use Hodgkin-Huxley model or FitzHug-Nagumo model to simulate action potentials of skeletal muscle fibers. These models are electrically excitable, but skeletal muscle fibers are stimulated chemically. To investigate skeletal muscle fibers we use a model with six ordinary differential equations. This dynamical system is sensitive to initial value of some variables so it is...
