Physics Asked on February 21, 2021
Both in classical (non-relativistic) electromagnetism and in relativity the equation of motion of an electron in electromagnetic field is
$$ frac{dmathbb{p}}{dt}= e(mathbb{E}+frac{mathbb{v}}{c}times mathbb{B}).$$
The momentum $mathbb{p}$ in the non-relativistic situation is $mmathbb{v}$, while in the relativistic one it is $frac{m}{sqrt{1-v^2/c^2}} mathbb{v}$. Here $m$ is the rest mass of the electron in both equations.
I am wondering whether the difference between two equations has been detected experimentally for high speed electrons. (I do not know if that it practically doable due to possible presence of quantum effects.)
Relativistic formula converges to classical one for the low speed also experimental results verifies these relations. Experimentally accelerators can accelerate electrons to reach relativistic speeds relativistic calculations can be verified on the other hand in your question you said is Quantum mechanical limitations causes a problem, actually in wave function analysis, they have similar statistical relation (surely considering uncertainty).
