X Abstract

In research on materials, it is not unusual for workers to be unaware of good ideas and results produced long ago, and I will discuss a case in point. When workers became acquainted with radiation pressure, it stimulated them to consider the possibility that electromagnetic fields could not only exert forces on matter, but that matter could exert forces on fields, extending ideas of action and reaction to combinations of these. I will present a formulation of these ideas and a similar one about energies, then use them to formulate a theory of materials that can be magnetized and polarized, one that can be compared with various theories of this kind in the literature. There are important differences between the theory presented here and most of the others. So, this provides food for thought as to what should be taken as bases for formulating such theories. 10.1177/1081286506069847

CiteULike organises scholarly (or academic) papers or literature and provides bibliographic (which means it makes bibliographies) for universities and higher education establishments. It helps undergraduates and postgraduates. People studying for PhDs or in postdoctoral (postdoc) positions. The service is similar in scope to EndNote or RefWorks or any other reference manager like BibTeX, but it is a social bookmarking service for scientists and humanities researchers.
