Title: | Self-energy quantum electrodynamics: multipole radiation | Authors: | Salamin, Yousef I. | Keywords: | Particles (Nuclear physics);Quantum electrodynamics;Quantum gravity;Self-Energy quantum;Electromagnetism;Multipole Radiation | Issue Date: | 1993 | Publisher: | Foundations of Physics | Abstract: | Within the context of Barut's self-field approach to quantum electrodynamics, we show that the exact relativistic expression for the Einstein A-coefficient of atomic spontaneous emission reduces, in the long wavelength approximation, to a form containing electric'- and magnetic-like multipole contributions related to the transition charge and current distributions of the relativistic electron. A number of interesting features of the expressions involved are discussed, and their general ization to interacting composite systems is also pointed out. | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.11889/8303 | DOI: | 10.1007/BF01883813 |
