Under the assumption that the force acting on an electric charge is given by the sum of the electromagnetic fields pro- 1 v duced by any other charged particles in its neighborhood, we prove 1 that the vector potential of the electromagnetic field has to be con- 3 sidered for the balance of kinetic momentum. The theory cannot be 0 4 quantized in the usual form—because it involves a mass matrix that 0 depends on spatial variables—and the Hamilton’s function becomes 4 singular at a distance equal to the geometric mean of the electrody- 0 / namic radiuses of electrons and protons. s c i s 1 Introduction y h p In previous works [1] [2], we have shown that, according to classical : v mechanics and electrodynamics: a neutral system of electric charges i X that passes through a region where there is an inhomogeneous mag- r netic field, experiences a force, even if its internal kinetic angular mo- a mentum is equal to zero. Given that this challenges the common in- terpretation of the Stern-Ge
