The frames S and S' have been left void. Where is the source of that electric/magnetic field located? Is it at rest in frame S' or in S. Which is the rest frame for that source, Dono****o? Is that source's rest frame rotating? Or is it that you have a third different frame S'' implicitly involved, where the source of the field is at rest? Read the problem statement, cretin. Dono****o, your problem is bull****. If you don't know how the source of the field is moving in S and S', your problem has no solution. You must tie the source in a fixed point, and see how that point moves in S while the xy plane rotates, and see how it moves in S'. |

S' moves along the common x-axis wit speed v. S and S' rotate together with fixed angular speed omega. With respect to what are S and S' rotating together with fixed angular speed, retardo? If S rotates with angular speed omega with respect to S', then S' rotates with minus omega wrt S. Where is the axis of rotation located? And, how does the source moves? Does the axis of rotation intersect the source or not? |

No. Maxwell's equations are invariant under a 15-parameter group called the conformal group, which is larger than the Poincare' group. The other 5 parameters are changes of scale, so if one keeps the same units only the 10-parameter Poincare' group applies. b) The inhomogeneous Lorentz group contains parity inversions and only continuous operations are allowed? No. Maxwell's equations are invariant under time reversal and parity inversion. c) Because the Faraday tensor does not transform as a tensor under the Poincare group? No. It does. Indeed, it transforms as a tensor under any coordinate change whatsoever. Can one use the full homogeneous Lorentz group, or only the component of it which includes the identity? Are you wearing your continuous transformation only hat? I have no such hat. Hint: remember that when one expresses a tensor F in terms of its components {F_ij}, the tensor itself is: F = F_ij e^i e^j where the {e^i} are the basis vectors of the coordinate system. Ask yourself how a translation affects the basis vectors. Hint2: remember that the components of a tensor {F_ij} transform: F_i'j' = dx^i/dx^i' dx^j/dx^j' F_ij and compute dx^i/dx^i' for a translation. Tom Roberts |

Any reference that you can suggest? Thank you. Look up the Faraday two-form (its dual is called the Maxwell 2-form or tensor). Its components, when projected onto an inertial frame, consist of the 3-vector components of E and B: [ 0 -Ex -Ey -Ez] F = [ Ex 0 Bz -By] [ Ey -Bz 0 Bx] [ Ez By -Bx 0 ] Thank you, I know all this, I even wrote the transform in its vectorial form. I asked something different, how does all this FURTHER transform when frames S and S' are ROTATING with a constant angular speed? Express x and y as a function of time then express Faraday's components in that coordinate system. Usehttp://mathworld.wolfram.com/RotationMatrix.htmlasa guide for x(t) and y(t). Thank you, What I put down is the following : a. In S x=r*cos(theta) y=r*sin(theta) b. In S' x'=r'*cos(theta') y'=r'*sin(theta') r'=gamma*(r-vt) (because S and S' move with relative speed v along the common x-axis) theta'=theta (because the axes of the two frames have aligned x and y axis) theta=w*t theta'=w'*t' t'=gamma(t-vx/c^2) So: x'=gamma (r-vt)*cos(theta')= gamma (r-vt)*cos(theta)=gamma (x- vt*cos(theta)) y'=gamma (y-vt*sin(theta)) resulting into: x'=gamma (x-vt*cos(wt)) y'=gamma (y-vt*sin(wt)) z'=z t'=gamma(t-vx/c^2) With the above, we can calculate: dE/dt=dE/dx'*dx'/dt+dE/dy'*dy'/dt+dE/dz'*dz'/dt+dE/dt'*dt'/dt= Does this look right? You must be quite a dumb writing such of that. Please correct your mistakes and your misunderstandings immediately |

F is a tensor, so its components transform: F_i'j' = dx^i/dx^i' dx^j/dx^j' F_ij Compute dx^i/dx^i' for your rotation and apply. Note, however, that interpreting those components in a rotating frame is non-trivial; in particular I don't think the usual identification of them as components of E and B applies. Indeed, I don't know what "E" and "B" mean in a non-inertial coordinate system, and the only way I know to figure it out is to relate them to E and B in an inertial system (so you're back where you started). IOW: this question is more complicated than how they transform, it is also a question of what they mean. Tom Roberts |

Tom Roberts Thank you, Tom The problem has a physical meaning, I am trying to relate the (E,B) measured at a certain latitude on the Earth surface to the values predicted at a different latitude (same longitude) as seen by an observer that follows the common meridian moving at tangential speed v. |

You should understand the canux own the North Magnetic pole and are planning on putting a man hole cover over it to shut it off, and charge for its use. Are you assuming the North Mag is located equally to the North axial pole? Ken (We're not mind readers) |
