Summary
The equations of motion of a classical system of electric charges, magnetic monopoles and electromagnetic waves are derived by using five axioms. The work answers the question: what are the equations of motion of this system which can be derived from a regular Lagrangian density?
Riassunto
Si derivano le equazioni di moto di un sistema classico di cariche elettriche, monopoli magnetici ed onde elettromagnetiche usando cinque assiomi. Questo lavoro risponde alla domanda: quali sono le equazioni di moto di questo sistema che possono essere derivate da una regolare densità lagrangiana?
Резюме
Используя пять аксиом, выводятся уравнения движения классической системы электрических зарядов, магнитных монополей и электромагнитных волн. Показано, что представляют собой уравнения движения этой системы, которые могут быть выведены из регулярной плотности Лагранжиана.
