Why isn't electromagnetism incompatible with special relativity?

The notion that newtonian gravity is incompatible with special relativity is often suggested by declaring the familiar equation $$F_g=\frac{Gm_1m_2}{|\vec{r}_1(t)-\vec{r}_2(t)|^2}$$ and stating that ...

Can we construct a logically self-consistent relativistic theory of gravity just by tweaking EM?

This question considers a modification of classical E&M where we simply reverse the relative sign in Maxwell's equations and change the "$q$" in the Lorentz force law to an "$m$&...

Numerical solution to the relative gravitational time dilation of induced dipolar gravitational fields

In gravitoelectromagnetism, an approximation to general relativity in the weak field limit, Einstein's equations simplify into a form very similar to Maxwell's equations. In this field, traditional ...
