Abstract

Two seldom used concepts, electric and magnetic pressure, have been applied to the classical problem of characterizing the force exerted on a charged particle by external electric and magnetic fields. In terms of fundamental natural laws such as the Coulomb's and magnetic ones (Lorentz), a generalization of the electrostatic and magnetostatic energy densities is obtained.
