β¦ Synopsis
Schild described the circular motion of two classical point charges interacting through their time-symmetric electromagnetic field. This work is compared here with quantum theories and generalized to include the interaction via massless and massive scalar fields. Energy and angular momentum for the bound system are computed. The approach to the potential theory limit, in which one of the particles is at rest, is studied carefully. The main purpose of this work is to gain insight into the nature of highly relativistic bound systems.

## Abstract The motion of a collisionless plasma is modelled by the VlasovβMaxwell system. In this paper, solutions of the relativistic VlasovβMaxwell system are considered in two space dimensions. The speed of light, __c__, appears as a parameter in the system. With representations of the electric
