PHYS 414 - Electrodynamics I

3 hours

Analysis of electrical circuits, electrostatic and magnetostatic fields, and the motion of charges therein. Maxwell’s equations and the consequent prediction of electro-magnetic waves. Applications to modern atomic and nuclear theory are stressed. Complex mapping, vector theorems, transforms, and special functions may be used. Laboratory experience is available in PHYS 326.
Prerequisite(s): PHYS 310; MATH 218, MATH 315; (MATH 316, MATH 317, MATH 318 desirable).
WINTER, even years
