Synopsis

This book, together with the three other volumes, offers a clear and comprehensive approach to theoretical physics for the entire Bachelor's program.

Highlights:

Theoretical derivations are linked with characteristic examples, their solutions, typical applications, and are clearly illustrated in diagrams. The required mathematics is derived within a physical context and explained transparently.

Contents:

Introduction to Electrodynamics - Coulomb's Law - Fundamentals of Electrostatics - Boundary Value Problems in Electrostatics - Ampère's Law - Fundamental Equations of Magnetostatics - Maxwell's Equations - Electromagnetic Potentials - Energy, Momentum, and Angular Momentum of the Field - The Electromagnetic Field in Vacuum - Wave Packets in Vacuum - Solutions of the Inhomogeneous Wave Equations - Multipole Radiation - Systematics of Multipole Expansion - Macroscopic Fields - Energy, Momentum, and Angular Momentum of the Macroscopic Field - Electric and Magnetic Properties of Matter - The Electromagnetic Field at Interfaces - Covariance of Electrodynamics

Target Audience:

This book is particularly suitable for Bachelor's students in their first or second year.

Prerequisites:

Mathematical prerequisites include knowledge of differentiation and integration, basic linear algebra, and concepts from vector calculus.

The Author:

Wolfgang Cassing is a retired Professor of Theoretical Physics at the Justus-Liebig-University Gießen. His expertise lies in phase space dynamics of classical and quantum many-body systems, which is also reflected in his scholarly book "Transport Theories for Strongly-Interacting Systems". This textbook series Theoretical Physics Compact also includes Classical Mechanics, Quantum Mechanics, as well as Quantum Statistics and Thermodynamics.
