How do I know if a solution of Maxwell Equations is caused solely by the charges?

My question is very general and it isn't limited to the system that I calculated the fields. I need a general answer or a particular answer for my problem. I found two fields $\mathbf E,\mathbf B$ ...

Does substituting the Lorentz-transformed scalar and vector potentials into the $E$-field formula yield the correct Lorentz-transformed $E$-field?

If we switch from one inertial frame to a different inertial frame with a relative velocity of $\mathbf{v}$, we could transform the scalar and vector potentials thusly: $$\varphi' = \gamma \left( \...

Null electric field at infinity? How? [closed]

Suppose there are two charges (4uC each) fixed in the horizontal axis. One is in x=0 and the other in x=8m. I've obtained the electric field: $E=-k\cdot4\mu C \cdot [\frac{1}{x^2}+\frac{1}{(x-8m)^2}]...
