Basic Electrodynamics in 6 Lessons

More about the book

The book delves into the various forms of Maxwell's equations, elucidating their physical significance and the quantities involved. It derives the equations for static electric and magnetic potentials from Maxwell's framework and incorporates the role of matter in the field. Multipole developments are explored, and the potential for simplifying dynamical theory through gauge field theory is discussed. Additionally, it connects the laws of optics to electrodynamics while addressing quasi-stationary calculations and presenting technical counterexamples.
