Reaction of electromagnetic radiation for relativistic dipolar objects in the classical relativistic theory of spin.
A.A. Sokolsky

In the framework of the classical relativistic theory of spin, the expressions for moment and force of reaction of electromagnetic radiation for objects with a charge and dipole moments are derived. It is shown that on this basis the relations directly generalize well-known Bargmann- Michel-Telegdi spin equations from the viewpoint of a consideration of the radiation self-interaction can be deduced.
Key words: classical relativistic theory, spin, electromagnetic radiation
