Continuity equation constraint and the form of electric-type transition operator

  • Published:
Czechoslovak Journal of Physics B Aims and scope

Abstract

The decomposition of electromagnetic vector potentialA=B+δS is studied, which enables one to include the constraint dictated by continuity equation into the electric-type transition operator. A class of decompositions is obtained and discussed. All previously known decompositions belong to this class. The alternative approach used recently by Friar and Fallieros is also considered.
