PHYS 5410 - Electromagnetic Theory I

Credits: 4
Max Credit: 4

The first semester of a two-semester sequence which presents electromagnetic theory on a professional level. The classical analytic solutions of the equations of motion are discussed and expressed as quadratures over the Green functions with attention to effect of boundary conditions. It presents topics such as algebra and calculus of vectors in configuration space, electrostatics, potential theory, and steady currents. Required for M. S. and Ph. D. students.

Prerequisite: PHYS 4420, PHYS 5110, MATH 4440 or equivalent.
