Spacetime algebra as a powerful tool for electromagnetism
by Justin Dressel, Konstantin Y. Bliokh, Franco Nori
Publisher: arXiv 2014
Number of pages: 118
Description:
We present a comprehensive introduction to spacetime algebra that emphasizes its practicality and power as a tool for the study of electromagnetism. We carefully develop this natural (Clifford) algebra of the Minkowski spacetime geometry, with a particular focus on its intrinsic (and often overlooked) complex structure.

Theory of Electromagnetic Fieldsby Andrzej Wolski - arXiv
We discuss electromagnetic fields, with an emphasis on aspects relevant to radiofrequency systems in particle accelerators. We review Maxwell's equations and show that there are solutions representing the propagation of electromagnetic waves.
