In the original Lamor equation, gamma^6 is used. Your approach optimzes this by using momentum instead of speed.
However:
beta(t_i) = momentum(t_i) / ( mass * SPEED_OF_LIGHT * gamma(t_i) )
Is the time dependence of gamma in the vector part considered in your derivation?
I am not sure, if we can consider gamma to be constant between two consecutive time steps.

I personally belief this is not a problem since we are already including an first order error when deriving our acceleration.
Just need to check it.

All right, that's a good point.

After discussing this issue with @ax3l we decided to merge this even if we have the following problems:
But other than that, this looks like an excellent tool to determine the origin of the radiation. let's merge! |
