Electromagnetic Field Theory
by Bo Thidé
Publisher: Upsilon Books 2008
ISBN/ASIN: 0486477738
ISBN-13: 9780486477732
Number of pages: 262
Description:
The book is written mainly from a classical field theoretical point of view, emphasising fundamental and subtle properties of the EM field and includes a comprehensive appendix on the mathematical methods used. It treats relativistic covariance and the Lagrangian/Hamiltionan formulation of electromagnetic field theory, with an eye on modern ideas of duality and unification of theories, and includes a rigorous, comprehensive and detailed treatment of EM radiation phenomena and some elements of semiclassical quantum electrodynamics.
