Dec 4, 2016 at 15:04 | comment | added | RenatoRenatoRenato | Ok I read now about the incompatibility of my metric with my langrangian, I was sure I worked my calculation wrong, instead I started from the wrong starting point. Thanks for the interesting second link too and for your clarification. PS: Lagrange was born Lagrangia, so I'll keep editing the title until someone bans me :P | |
Dec 4, 2016 at 15:01 | comment | added | RenatoRenatoRenato | Does that provide an answer and I'm not getting it? Or, is it just an observation? Thanks, in any case it's a useful observation. As regards my problem, in the first link you provide, there's my convention with the right Maxwell equation, while mine still seems wrong to me. | |
Dec 4, 2016 at 14:45 | comment | added | Qmechanic♦ | Note different sign conventions in E&M, cf. e.g. this & this Phys.SE posts. OP's eqs. (1) & (5) are compatible. OP's eqs. (1) & (2) are traditionally incompatible. | |
