Abstract

The aim of this research is to see if the newly modified Maxwell equations had provided adequate solutions to the problem of symmetry breaking of electric fields. The symmetry breaking of electric fields had been proposed to be among the phenomenon responsible for electromagnetic wave generation. The effects of the symmetric breaking of the electric fields were investigated via a systematic approach by incorporating quantum mechanics into the ab-initio Maxwell equation. The following discoveries were documented. When electron acceleration increases, the symmetry breaking of the electric field is expected to be high. Upon further investigation, the possibility of high symmetry breaking of electric field exists when electron decelerates. Hence, there may be another phenomenon responsible for electromagnetic wave generation aside electron acceleration and the symmetry breaking of electric fields that has been proposed.
