Özet
In a series of articles, it has been claimed by the author that speed of light in vacuum c can be infinite. This result was reached by considering electromagnetic problems or more general processes and the Lorentz transformation or the differential Lorentz transformation of space-time coordinates was assumed as the basis for the development in each work. However, in the present work for the motion of a charge density, an infinite speed of light in vacuum result is obtained without recourse to the Lorentz transformation. The discussion is on the scalar and vector potentials of a charge density that abruptly starts an arbitrary motion. First it is shown that for a point charge with an abruptly starting uniform rectilinear motion, the potential formulas obtained using the Lorenz condition do not satisfy the Lorenz condition unless c is set equal to infinity. Then for a general charge distribution it is found that the Lorenz condition upon which the formulas for the scalar and vector potentials are based, is satisfied if and only if the partial derivative/partial derivative t and del. operators respectively can be interchanged with the volume integrals needed to compute these potentials. Next for the potentials of a discontinuous arbitrary motion of a charge density, it is proved that these differentiations under the integral are permitted only if c is infinite. These results give, without resorting to the Lorentz transformation, the fact that for an arbitrary charge density set into abrupt general motion, the potentials satisfy the Lorenz condition only if c is infinite or that the potentials are no longer retarded.
