In this paper we derive the Lorentz-Dirac equation of motion for a charged particle moving in an external electromagnetic field. We use Maxwell's electromagnetic field equations together with the assumptions (1) that all fields are retarded and (2) that the 4-force acting on the charged particle is a Lorentz 4-force. To define the self-field on the world-line of the charge we utilize a contour integral representation for the field due to A. W. Conway. This by-passes the need to define an ‘average field’. In an appendix the case of a scalar field is briefly discussed.

The Vlasov-Maxwell stationary system for charged particle laminar beams is studied with a paraxial model of approximation. It leads to a degenerate evolution system, which local existence is proved. Then, using lagrangian coordinates, with sufficient conditions on the initial data and the external electromagnetic field, it is shown that global existence is possible.
