This book was released on 2021-07-06 with total page 139 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aim of this book is to provide self-learning aids on electromagnetic theory and an introduction on computational electrodynamics. Nor, of course, is it intended to present a self-sufficient treaty on this subject. Therefore, a prior knowledge of the notions of differential and integral calculus should be accompanied in parallel to the systematic development of beginning students. Following this proposition, Maxwell's equations are solved in frequency-domain and in time-domain, through computational techniques. Thus, this material is aimed for both students starting an undergraduate degree in Engineering or Physics as well as those who are in more advanced studies on electromagnetic theory.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1865 James Clerk Maxwell (1831 - 1879) published this work, "A Dynamical Theory of the Electromagnetic Field" demonstrating that electric and magnetic fields travel through space as waves moving at the speed of light. He proposed that light is an undulation in the same medium that is the cause of electric and magnetic phenomena. The unification of light and electrical phenomena led him to predict the existence of radio waves. Maxwell is also regarded as the founding scientist of the modern field of electrical engineering.His discoveries helped usher in the era of modern physics, laying the foundation for such fields as special relativity and quantum mechanics. Many physicists regard Maxwell as the 19th-century scientist having the greatest influence on 20th-century physics. His contributions to physics are considered by many to be of the same magnitude as the ones of Isaac Newton and Albert Einstein.In this original treatise Maxwell introduces the best of his mind in seven parts, to include: PART I.-INTRODUCTORY.PART II. - ON ELECTROMAGNETIC INDUCTION.PART III. - GENERAL EQUATIONS OF THE ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELD.PART IV.- MECHANICAL ACTIONS IN THE FIELD.PART V. - THEORY OF CONDENSERS.PART VI. - ELECTROMAGNETIC THEORY OF LIGHT.PART VII. - CALCULATION OF THE COEFFICIENTS OF ELECTROMAGNETIC INDUCTION.

This book was released on 2001-11-19 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Divergencies in quantum field theory referred to as “infinite zero-point energy” have been a problem for 70 years. Renormalization has always been considered an unsatisfactory remedy.In 1985 it was found that Maxwell's equations generally do not have solutions that satisfy the causality law. An additional term for magnetic dipole currents corrected this shortcoming. Rotating magnetic dipoles produce magnetic dipole currents, just as rotating electric dipoles in a material like barium titanate produce electric dipole currents. Electric dipole currents were always part of Maxwell's equations.This book shows that the correction of Maxwell's equations eliminates the infinite zero-point energy in quantum electrodynamics. In addition, it presents many more new results.

This book was released on 1966-01-31 with total page 496 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aim of this work is to study the principles upon which the classical and relativistic theories of the electromagnetic and gravitational fields are based. Thus, the primary object of the book is to present a simple exposition of Maxwell's theory, of General Relativity and of the link between those two concepts, namely, Special Relativity. In the nineteenth century the notion of a continuous field gradually replaced the idea of action at a distance. The electromagnetic theory that was elaborated at that time covers a very large area of Physics, since it makes possible the description of permanent phenomena, electrostatics and magnetostatics, as well as of variable phenomena. It anticipates the existence of waves, and thereby the theory of light is annexed to this vast domain. It was discovered that Maxwell's equations changed their form when they were related to reference systems associated with two observers in rectilinear uniform motion with respect to each other and each endowed with the absolute time required by classical mechanics. This was a most remarkable fact. Indeed, as soon as attempts were made to verify the results of classical kinematics by means of experiments with the propa gation of light, there arose a whole series of contradictions.

Download or read book Electromagnetism and the Structure of Matter written by Daniele Funaro and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2008 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The classical theory of electromagnetism is entirely revised in this book by proposing a variant of Maxwell equations that allows solitonic solutions (photons). The Lagrangian is the standard one, but it is minimized on a constrained space that enforces the wave packets to follow the rules of geometrical optics. Exact solutions are explicitly shown; this opens a completely new perspective for the study of light wave phenomena. In the framework of general relativity, the equations are written in covariant form. A coupling with the metric is obtained through the Einstein equation, whose solutions are computed exactly in a lot of original situations. Finally, the explicit construction of elementary particles, consisting of rotating photons, is indicated. The results agree qualitatively and quantitatively with what it is actually observed. This opens the path to an understanding of the structure of matter and its properties, also aimed to provide a causal explanation to quantum phenomena.
Download or read book Maxwell Equation Inverse Scattering In Electromagnetism written by Hiroshi Isozaki and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2018-07-12 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How can one determine the physical properties of the medium or the geometrical properties of the domain by observing electromagnetic waves? To answer this fundamental problem in mathematics and physics, this book leads the reader to the frontier of inverse scattering theory for electromagnetism.The first three chapters, written comprehensively, can be used as a textbook for undergraduate students. Beginning with elementary vector calculus, this book provides fundamental results for wave equations and Helmholtz equations, and summarizes the potential theory. It also explains the cohomology theory in an easy and straightforward way, which is an essential part of electromagnetism related to geometry. It then describes the scattering theory for the Maxwell equation by the time-dependent method and also by the stationary method in a concise, but almost self-contained manner. Based on these preliminary results, the book proceeds to the inverse problem for the Maxwell equation.The chapters for the potential theory and elementary cohomology theory are good introduction to graduate students. The results in the last chapter on the inverse scattering for the medium and the determination of Betti numbers are new, and will give a current scope for the inverse spectral problem on non-compact manifolds. It will be useful for young researchers who are interested in this field and trying to find new problems.

Book excerpt: Maxwell's equations and the discovery of electromagnetic waves changed the world. Can you imagine how our everyday life would be without telephone, radio, television, mobile phones and internet? It is thanks to Maxwell's equations that we understand what electromagnetic waves are and how they are generated, propagated and detected. These equations can even change our perception of nature when they are really understood, but their power and elegance is completely appreciated when they are expressed in differential form. Moreover, this form is extremely useful dealing with some issues, such as the propagation of electromagnetic waves.This book can be very useful for undergraduates that must face the differential form of Maxwell's equations and its application to electromagnetic waves for the first time because: - Maxwell's equations and the propagation of free and guided waves are introduced with mathematical rigor but without requiring previous knowledge on advanced vector calculus or theory of functions of complex variable. Only elementary notions of calculus, vectors, geometry and trigonometry are required.- The definition and notation of vector operators (divergence and curl) are explained in easy mathematical terms.- An assortment of examples and solved problems illustrates how Maxwell's equations work in differential form and electromagnetic waves propagate in free space and confined media.- Several examples of waveguides are analyzed with the help of an intuitive picture and without solving coupled partial differential equations to elucidate the peculiarities of guided propagation. Advanced mathematical treatments can sometimes hide the physical understanding of phenomena.In short, this book will help students to bridge the gap between elementary and advances treatments on Maxwell's equation and electromagnetic waves. Thus, it can be a good training for electromagnetism courses

Download or read book Extended Electromagnetic Theory written by Bo Lehnert and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 1998 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents extended forms of the Maxwell equations as well as electromagnetic fields, based on a non-zero divergence of the electric field and a non-zero electric conductivity in vacuo. These approaches, which predict new features of the electromagnetic field, such as the existence of both longitudinal and transverse solutions, the existence of space-charge current in vacuo, and steady electromagnetic equilibria, have possible applications to charge and neutral leptons and new photon physics. The present theory can also clear up some unsolved problems, such as the total reflection of light at the interface between a vacuum and a dissipative medium, and the appearance of an angular momentum of the photon, thereby leading to a rest mass and an axial magnetic field component of the photon. This axial magnetic field component may be related to the B(3) field proposed by Evans and Vigier. A new gauge condition has been proposed to maintain consistency of the theory with the non-zero photon mass. Several consequences of the non-zero mass of the photon are also discussed, especially in the astrophysical context.
