... In the presence of only uniform magnetic field B , the motion of a charged particle can be described with gyration about the guiding center and motion along the field line. ... In the precence of both magnetic and electric fields, the equation of motion for charged particle (mass m, charge q) is m d v /dt = q ( E + v x B ). ... Because v is independent of the mass and sign of the charge, it is the same for negatively and positively charged particles, and does not create electric current. ...

. The elementary methods (that is, the use of real analysis vs. complex analysis) have a long history from Chebyshev to modern times. They lead to great achievements, due to Erdos, Selberg, Bombieri, etc. I recently started a thorough study of these methods, in order to understand their scope. In the talk, I will give a quick survey of this field, and some new observations. Go to the Laboratoire Poncelet home page. Site design by Paul Zinn-Justin

... 2 Magnetic Field . ... A magnetized bar has its power concentrated at two ends, its poles ; they are known as its north (N) and south (S) poles, because if the bar is hung by its middle from a string, its N end tends to point northwards and its S end southwards. ... That flow became known as an electric current . ... An electric current produced a magnetic force! ... The fundamental nature of magnetism was not associated with magnetic poles or iron magnets, but with electric currents . ...

... 2006 December 19 . Massive Stars in Open Cluster Pismis 24 . Credit: NASA , ESA and J. M. ApellАniz ( IAA , Spain). Explanation: How massive can a normal star be? Estimates made from distance, brightness and standard solar models had given one star in the open cluster Pismis 24 over 200 times the mass of our Sun, making it a record holder. ... Component stars would still remain near 100 solar masses, making them among the more massive stars currently on record. ... About APOD | ...
