Neglecting the fact that real particles would generate their own E and B fields, which would alter the electromagnetic forces that they experience.

Lorentz force equation (relativistic)	$\frac{d}{d t} \frac{m 𝐯}{\sqrt{1 - {(\frac{𝐯}{c})}^{2}}} = q (𝐄 + 𝐯 \times 𝐁)$
	$B$ represents magnetic field
	$E$ represents electric field
	$c$ represents speed of light in vacuum
	$m$ represents mass
	$q$ represents electric charge
	$t$ represents time
	$v$ represents particle velocity
