On the Steady Motion of an Electrified Ellipsoid
Proofed and corrected from the scanned original edition.
*****
This is a highly technical scientific writing from 1897.

An excerpt from the beginning:
AT the Meeting of the Royal Society on 19th March, 1896, I read a paper on "Problems in Electric Convection." The first part of the paper is printed in the 'Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society', and contains the principles which are required in the solution of any problems about moving charges. The second part of the paper, which deals with the motion of a charged ellipsoid, was not published by the Royal Society. A few of the results are, however, stated in an abstract published in the 'Proceedings'. By the permission of the Royal Society I now publish my results for a moving ellipsoid. As frequent reference to my paper in the 'Philosophical Transactions' will be necessary, I shall use the notation {§5} and {(9)} to indicate the paragraph or equation referred to in that paper. When any system of electric charges moves with uniform velocity through the aether, the electromagnetic field, when referred to axis moving forwards with the charges, can be completely defined by means of a quantity ψ [psi], as was first shown by Prof. J. J. Thomson. The electric force E and the magnetic force H are simple functions of Ψ [psi]. But besides E and H there is another vector of great importance, viz. the mechanical force F experienced by a unit charge moving with the rest of the system. The value of F I have shown {§ 10} to be given by the vector equation
