Electromagnetic Theory: Supplementary Notes

This page will have links to the supplemenary notes — my own notes, or interesting web pages on the Internet — for my Electromagnetic Theory (I) class (387 K, Spring 2018, unique 56275).

• Highlights of magnetostatics.
• Dynamics of a charged particle and gauge transforms of wavefunctions.
• Aharonov–Bohm effect and Dirac's magnetic monopoles.
• Polarization, Magnetization, and related issues.
• Faraday's Induction Law; see also longer, undergraduate-level notes on the subject.
• Magnetic energy.
• Eddy currents, diffusion, and skin effect.
• Maxwell equations and how to solve them.
• EM wave absorption in water (Wikipedia article).
• Dispersion.
• Refraction and reflection of the electromagnetic waves.
• Symmetries of mechanics and electromagnetism.
• Radiation by magnetic dipoles and electric quadrupoles.
• Radiation by a linear antenna.
• Michelson–Morley experiment (Wikipedia page).
• Spacetime geometry.
• Manifestly relativistic electrodynamics.
• Relativistic energy and momentum.
• Radiation by the accelerating charge.
