  This article is devoted to obtaining an equation for the Abraham force in a
continuous non-conducting medium and methods of its measurement. The equation
for the Abraham force is obtained from the Minkowski tensor. The Abraham force
appears when the vectors D and E, H and B are non-collinear. From the equation
for the Abraham force it follows that it is a vortex force, and its divergence
is equal to zero. It shows the existence of the Abraham electric force and the
magnetic Abraham's force. Various measurement methods of the Abraham force,
which follow from its equation, are given.
