By: Fleisch, Daniel AMaterial type: TextTextPublisher: Cambridge, UK ; New York : Cambridge University Press, 2008Description: ix, 134 p. : ill. ; 23 cmISBN: 9780521877619 (hardback : alk. paper); 052187761X (hardback : alk. paper); 9780521701471 (pbk. : alk. paper); 0521701473 (pbk. : alk. paper)Subject(s): Maxwell equationsDDC classification: 530.14/1 LOC classification: QC670 | .F56 2008Online resources: Table of contents only | Publisher description | Contributor biographical information
Contents:
Gauss's law for electric fields -- Gauss's law for magnetic fields -- Faraday's law -- The Ampere-Maxwell law -- From Maxwell's equations to the wave equation -- Appendix : Maxwell's equations in matter.
Summary: "In this guide for students, each equation is the subject of an entire chapter, with detailed, plain-language explanations of the physical meaning of each symbol in the equation, for both the integral and differential forms. The final chapter shows how Maxwell's equations may be combined to produce the wave equation, the basis for the electromagnetic theory of light."--Publisher description.
