The Equation of Motion of an Electron
arXiv:quant-ph/0311021 · doi:10.1016/S0375-9601(03)00849-1
Abstract
The claim by Rohrlich that the Abraham-Lorentz-Dirac equation is not the correct equation for a classical point charge is shown to be incorrect and it is pointed out that the equation which he proposes is the equation {\underline{derived}} by Ford and O'Connell for a charge with structure. The quantum-mechanical case is also discussed.
