Careful calculations using classical field theory show that if a macroscopic ball with uniform surface charge (say, a billiard ball with lE6 excess electrons) is released near the surface of the earth, it will almost instantaneously accelerate to relativistic speed and blow a hole in the ground.

The behaviour of a ``test'' electromagnetic field in the background of an exact gravitational plane wave is investigated in the framework of Einstein's general relativity. We have expressed the general solution to the de Rham equations as a Fourier-like integral. In the general case we have reduced
In this paper we study an ideal electron gas in the presence of a uniform electromagnetic field and confinement by a three-dimensional harmonic potential. We find the partition function of this system and in the sequel we examine the Boltzmann statistics and Fermi-Dirac statistics applying the grand
