Classical Unification of Electromagnetism and Gravity

This paper introduces a novel formulation of the Schwarzschild metric as a solution to the Einstein field equations by incorporating a generalized potential compatible with the units of gravitational potential. This unified potential framework integrates gravitational, inertial, electric, and magnetic potentials into a single scalar quantity.

A Classical Theory of Electromagnetism and Gravitation

Nature, 1945
ATTEMPTS to obtain a unified theory of gravitational and electromagnetic phenomena1 have assumed the form of generalizing the equations of general relativity theory, so that they incorporate terms which may be identified with electromagnetic potentials and charge and current distributions.

Electromagnetic Mass of the Classical Electron

American Journal of Physics, 1966
The difference between the electrostatic mass of the classical electron m0, and the electrodynamic mass (4/3)m0, has caused a considerable amount of confusion because the theory of relativity seems to predict that, in the limit of small velocities, the two masses should be the same.

An Introduction to Classical Electromagnetic Radiation

Nuclear Fusion, 1998
This book provides the basic concepts necessary for an introduction to the classical theory of radiation. The reader is first introduced to Maxwell's equations and then led through their basic properties (Chapters 1 and 2). Non-uniform plane waves are treated in Chapter 3 with a discussion of the two and three dimensional cases.

Special relativity and classical electromagnetism

1997
Until now we have deliberately avoided the use of ideas based on special relativity so as to show that all our interpretations can be based on classical electromagnetism itself without any recourse to special relativity. In this chapter we shall give a brief survey of the intimate relationships between classical electromagnetism and special relativity,

On energy absorption in classical electromagnetism

American Journal of Physics, 2001
Using only classical electromagnetic energy conservation laws and causality, we show that the net average power absorbed by any mechanically isolated illuminated medium in steady state must be zero, but that for linear model media it is nonzero. This contradiction implies that all media must behave inelastically.

The Classical Theory of Electromagnetic Fields

1973
The classical field theory that is developed here is not used until Chapter 12, where its quantization is considered. Consequently, a reading of this chapter may be delayed until then, provided that the validity of Gauss’ law (Equation 5.50) is accepted; it is recalled that the proof of this equation, which is used in Section 5.7, was postponed until ...

Electromagnetic Basis of Gravity and Inertia in Classical Systems

This paper proposes that all classical mechanical and gravitational effects observed in ordinary matter originate from electromagnetic interactions. It argues that inertia, contact forces, and gravitational curvature arise entirely from the electromagnetic field energy generated by charged particles, even in neutral systems.

Electromagnetic Origins of Gravity and Inertia in Classical Systems

This paper proposes that all classical mechanical and gravitational effects in ordinary matter arise from electromagnetic field interactions. It argues that mass, inertia, contact forces, and spacetime curvature are emergent phenomena rooted in the energy and structure of electromagnetic fields generated by charged particles.
