Physics: Electromagnetism

Utbildningsfakta

Kod: FYSC20

<p>The overall aim of the course is that you should learn the basics of the theory for electromagnetic fields based on Maxwell's equations and the Lorentz force.</p> <p>The course contains basic electromagnetic field theory as well as related vector calculus. In particular, it includes:</p> <ul> <li>vector calculus: derivatives of vector fields and related integral theorems as well as Dirac's delta function,</li> <li>Maxwell's equations on differential and integral form in both microscopic and macroscopic formulation,</li> <li>stationary electric and magnetic fields in vacuum and matter,</li> <li>electrodynamics: electromotive force and induction,</li> <li>electromagnetic waves in vacuum,</li> <li>scalar and vector potential: method of images, separation of variables, multipole expansion, the gauge principle and gauge choices.</li> </ul>
