An energy bound deduced from the vanishing of the radiation reaction force during uniform acceleration

TL;DR

This paper derives an energy-based lower bound on the mass of systems that can accelerate charged bodies uniformly, linking it to energy conservation and the dominant energy condition in general relativity.

Contribution

It introduces a novel energy bound for accelerating charged systems and connects it to fundamental principles in general relativity.

Findings

Derived a lower mass bound from energy conservation during uniform acceleration.

Linked the energy bound to the dominant energy condition in general relativity.

Provided insights into the energy requirements for charged particle acceleration.

Abstract

We deduce from energy conservation a lower bound on the mass of any system capable of imparting a constant acceleration to a charged body. We also point out a connection between this bound and the so called dominant energy condition of general relativity.
