Abstract

Based on a new concept, i.e., charge moment tensor and the rotational equation of a charged dielectric rigid body about a fixed-point under a uniform external magnetic field, one symmetrical case has been rigorously solved. The rotational stability has been analyzed in detail for two cases, general and symmetrical, respectively, by means of some techniques of matrix analysis.
