Appendix C: Supplementary Proofs<br />

Section C.1: Introduction<br />

Appendix C contains various explicit proofs that are not of sufficient importance<br />

to be included in the body of the thesis, but whose inclusion may be<br />

of use to some readers.<br />

Section C.2: Mechanical field excesses<br />

The excess in mechanical energy and mechanical momentum of the electromagnetic<br />

field due to the bringing of an electric charge into the vicinity of<br />

other electric sources are computed.<br />

Section C.3: Electromagnetic field identities<br />

Proofs are supplied for various identities listed in Section B.2.12.<br />

Appendix D: Retarded Fields Verification<br />

Section D.1: Introduction<br />

Appendix D shows that the manifestly covariant retarded dipole fields obtained<br />

by the author in Chapter 5 agree with the expressions previously<br />

obtained by Cohn and Wiebe in 1976.<br />

Section D.2: The Cohn–Wiebe field expressions<br />

The final potential and field expressions obtained by Cohn and Wiebe are<br />

listed, together with comments about their conventions and notation.<br />
