Abstract :
The concept of a negative radius of curvature is used to show that the Fock currents can be extended to cover the case of a concave parabola, as well as a convex one. A simple analytic continuation of a parameter in the expression for the Fock currents leads to a residue series representation. The residue series is compared with an integral equation solution for a specific parabola.
