Perspective and Principles
1.1.1 The acceleration of the charged particle can be expressed as,

v2 (e2 /ma0 ) e2 e2 me2 me6
|~a| = = = 2 = 2

2 e2 me6 2 m2 e14
p= 3 4

E E
Now p = , so T = , and if we take
T p
e2 e2 me2 m2 e4
E= = 2

2a 2 ~ 2~2
then

Plugging in the following constants
~ = 1.05 × 10−27 erg.s
c = 3 × 1010 cm.s−1
m = 9.11 × 10−28 g
e = 4.8 × 10−10 esu
into the above equation, we get
T ≈ 4.7 × 10−11 s
The number of possible orbits is computed below. The total time of orbit is,
