Mechanical momentum ($\mathbf{\pi }=\mathbf{p}-q\mathbf{A}$)

For a charged particle minimally coupled to a magnetic vector potential, the mechanical momentum is $\mathbf{\pi }=\mathbf{p}-q\mathbf{A}$, with $\mathbf{p}$ the canonical momentum. It is the mass times velocity in nonrelativistic mechanics.
