A connection between the Darwin term and a nonspherical charge distribution

A derivation of the Darwin term is given based on assuming a nonspherical charge distribution. The total translational energy of the system is obtained for a static electric field, and the corresponding quantum equation is found to contain the Darwin term under certain conditions.

Abstract

A derivation of the Darwin term is given based on assuming a nonspherical charge distribution. The total translational energy of the system is obtained for a static electric field, and the corresponding quantum equation is found to contain the Darwin term under certain conditions.
