Abstract

The charge distribution and electromagnetic field in a rotating conductor with a net electric charge under stationary conditions are described by Schiffs equations of electrodynamics in a rotating reference frame. The existence of a spatial charge distribution in a conductor at rest in a rotating reference frame is demonstrated.
