Publisher's Synopsis
The branch of theoretical physics which studies the interaction between currents and electric charges is known as classical electromagnetism. It primarily uses an extension of the classical Newtonian model. It is used to provide a description of electromagnetic phenomena at relatively large length scales and field strengths. Some of the fundamental concepts within this area of study are Liénard-Wiechert potentials and Jefimenko's equations. The classical electromagnetic effect of a moving electric point charge in terms of a scalar potential and vector potential in the Lorenz gauge is described through the Liénard-Wiechert potential. A few of the other elements of study within this field are electromagnetic waves, Lorentz force and the electric field. The topics included in this book on classical electromagnetism are of utmost significance and bound to provide incredible insights to readers. While understanding the long-term perspectives of the topics, it makes an effort in highlighting their impact as a modern tool for the growth of the discipline. This textbook is appropriate for students seeking detailed information in this area as well as for experts.
