Free fall of a charged particle in centrosymmetric Reissner—Nordström field

  • Published:
Acta Physica Academiae Scientiarum Hungaricae

Abstract

The motion of a charged particle in a Reissner-Nordström field is discussed and various specific situations are analysed. If the relativistic correction terms are neglected, it has been shown that the particle moves radially under gravitational attraction and electrostatic repulsion.
