Neutral Coulomb pair in a uniform magnetic field

ID: neutral-coulomb-pair-in-a-uniform-magnetic-field

For charges and relative coordinate , total magnetic pseudomomentum is conserved in a uniform magnetic field. In an appropriate symmetric-gauge Lagrangian differing by a total derivative, it is the canonical centre-of-mass momentum. Mechanical centre-of-mass momentum instead equals and need not be constant. The sector is not generally a stationary-centre-of-mass frame.
