Abstract

An electric field with potentials that is homogeneous in Euler terms satisfies the principle of similarity of trajectories that was derived by Yu.K. Golikov. Such fields are a useful tool for the development of electron and ion optical systems with unique properties. In this paper, the principle of similarity of trajectories is generalized to the case of a magnetic field and a combined electric and magnetic field that are homogeneous in Euler terms.
