TORRES DEL CASTILLO, G.F  and  PEREZ SANCHEZ, C.I. The Maxwell equations in a uniformly accelerated frame. Rev. mex. fis. [online]. 2007, vol.53, n.1, pp.4-9. ISSN 0035-001X.

The solution of the source-free Maxwell equations in a uniformly accelerated frame of reference is expressed in terms of a single complex scalar potential that obeys a second-order equation. The field of a static electric charge is obtained as an example of a stationary axisymmetric field.

Keywords : Special relativity; Maxwell's equations; accelerated charge.
