Book Summary of Classical Electrodynamics This book covers information relating to physics and classical mathematics that is necessary to understand electromagnetic fields in materials and at surfaces and interfaces. It also addresses the changes in emphasis and applications that have occurred in the past twenty years. Table of contents • Introduction to Electrostatics • Boundary-Value Problems in Electrostatics: I • Boundary-Value Problems in Electrostatics: II • Multipoles, Electrostatics of Macroscopic Media, Dielectrics • Magnetostatics, Faraday's Law, Quasi-Static Fields • Maxwell Equations, Macroscopic Electromagnetism, Conservation Laws • Plane Electromagnetic Waves and Wave Propagation • Waveguides, Resonant Cavities, and Optical Fibers • Radiating Systems, Multipole Fields and Radiation • Scattering and Diffraction • Special Theory of Relativity • Dynamics of Relativistic Particles and Electromagnetic Fields • Collisions, Energy Loss, and Scattering of Charged Particles, Cherenkov and Transition Radiation • Radiation by Moving Charges • Bremsstrahlung, Method of Virtual Quanta, Radiative Beta Processes • Radiation Damping, Classical Models of Charged Particles Appendices Bibliography Index
