Use and the mostly-plus Minkowski metric fixed in part a. The electromagnetic four-potential and its covariant form are
Define the electromagnetic field tensor by . Since and ,
Raising both indices changes the signs of its time-space entries. The lower-index signs agree with [ref]; the signature and index placement must be kept consistent.
For a passive boost to a frame moving with , transform the tensor as
For example, and . Reading off all entries gives
For an arbitrary boost velocity , rotational covariance gives the Lorentz transformation of electromagnetic fields
Here all velocities are in units. Equivalently the parallel components are unchanged and the perpendicular components have the cross-product expressions multiplied by .
