  • Abstract
    A separation of the field energy into kinetic energy and rest energy is suggested. This implies an energy transport velocity which equals c in the limit of plane waves, and equals the point charge velocity in the limit of a slowly moving point charge. The old "4/3 paradox" is hereby avoided.
