  I calculate the self-force acting on a particle with electric charge q moving
on a generic geodesic around a Schwarzschild black hole. Using methods similar
to those developed for the scalar field case discussed in a previous paper, I
investigate the relative sizes of the conservative (half-advanced plus
half-retarded) and dissipative (half-advanced minus half-retarded) pieces of
the self-force. I also display the regularization parameters used in the
mode-sum regularization scheme.
