Abstract
Some general relations are derived for the wake potential, that is, th e integrated Lorentz force acting on a unit charge that passes, with c onstant velocity, through a region of electromagnetic fields. The wake potential is irrotational and nearly ''source-free.'' The longitudina l component satisfies the Laplace equation for the transverse coordina tes in the case of highly relativistic motion.
