Born–Infeld model
Model of nonlinear electrodynamics / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In theoretical physics, the Born–Infeld model or the Dirac–Born–Infeld action is a particular example of what is usually known as a nonlinear electrodynamics. It was historically introduced in the 1930s to remove the divergence of the electron's self-energy in classical electrodynamics by introducing an upper bound of the electric field at the origin. It was introduced by Max Born and Leopold Infeld in 1934,[1] with further development by Paul Dirac in 1962.[2][3][4]
