Abstract: | We discuss transformation laws of electric and magnetic fields under Lorentz transformations, deduced from the classical field theory. It is found that we can connect the resulting expression for a bivector formed with those fields, with the expression deduced from the Wigner transformation rules for spin-1 functions of massive particles. This mass parameter should be interpreted because the constancy of speed of light forbids the existence of the photon mass. |
