Longitudinal solenoid field under an axial boost
ID: longitudinal-solenoid-field-under-an-axial-boost
An ideal long solenoid has , with axial turn density n. Under an axial boost, turn density becomes . The transverse circulation path is unchanged while a turn's charge-circulation rate, measured relative to its moving material, becomes . Thus and the axial magnetic field remains unchanged. Equivalently, the ideal transverse current-sheet density is invariant under this boost. End effects are excluded.
