Students’ confusions about the electric field of a uniformly moving charge

In light of a recent direct experimental confirmation of a Lorentz contraction of Coulomb field (an electric field of a point charge in a uniform motion), we revisit some common confusions related to it, to be mindful of in teaching the subject. These include questions about the radial nature of the...
