✦ Synopsis

The celebrated Ampere experiments and their phenomenological interpretation by Amp~re's equation are, in many respects, more closely allied with the spirit of modern physics than are the flux visualizations of Faraday and Maxwell. Further study of this subject may lead to an improved theory of electrodynamics.

Amp6re's equation for the force between current elements is unique, assuming th~ correctness of Amp~re's five postulates. But two of these postulates may be questioned. The present paper develops the general equations that apply if either the fifth or the third postulate is omitted.

The paper presents a preliminary study of electrodynamics based on an equation for the force between moving but unaccelerated charges. It is proved that the unique equation for force between current elements, consistent with a summation of forces between charges and the Amp&re experiments, is Amp~re
