Quantum wave equations and non-radiating electromagnetic sources
Description
A connection between classical non-radiating sources and free-particle wave equations in quantum mechanics is rigorously made. It is proven that free-particle wave equations for all spins have currents which can be defined and which are non-radiating electromagnetic sources. It is also proven that and the advanced and retarded fields are exactly equal for these sources. Implications of these results are discussed
