Electricity and Magnetism. Basic principles and methods


Book Description

Document from the year 2020 in the subject Physics - Physics general, grade: 4.00, , language: English, abstract: The book is intended as a text book on Electricity and Magnetism for undergraduate levels students of Physics and also as a reference book for anyone who is interested in this field of enquiry. This volume demanded such as to explain the physical concepts, to describe the mathematical formalism, and to present illustrative examples of both the ideas and the methods of Electricity and Magnetism. The book comprehensively discusses all topics that are usually taught to upper undergraduate students of Physics. Written for general physics courses this text deals with large-scale phenomena and then proceeds to small-scale less accessible phenomena. Examples of calculations are presented after important formulas are derived, and actual related experiments are explained in detail. Sometimes, students were facing serious obstacles in their learning process due to their unavoidable situations and lack of previous background study of Electricity and Magnetism. This book will help the students alike who have no previous much study of Electricity and Magnetism. It is written such that the basic understanding of Electricity and Magnetism is conveyed to the students without any difficulty. Also teachers of courses on Electricity and Magnetism can use this book as their own lecture plans without any modification. It is to be noted that the purpose of this book is to cover the basic principles and methods of Electricity and Magnetism which are usually included in the course of teaching Physics at the undergraduate levels student. I hope this book will be useful to the students and teachers in the different universities around the world.




Electricity and Magnetism


Book Description

This book is a very comprehensive textbook covering in great depth all the electricity and magnetism. The 2nd edition includes new and revised figures and exercises in many of the chapters, and the number of problems and exercises for the student is increased. In the 1st edition, emphasis much was made of superconductivity, and this methodology will be continued in the new edition by strengthening of the E-B analogy. Many of the new exercises and problems are associated with the E-B analogy, which enables those teaching from the book to select suitable teaching methods depending on the student’s ability and courses taken, whether physics, astrophysics, or engineering. Changes in the chapters include a detailed discussion of the equivector-potential surface and its correspondence between electricity and magnetism. The shortcomings of using the magnetic scalar potential are also explained. The zero resistivity in a magnetic material showing perfect diamagnetism can be easily proved. This textbook is an ideal text for students, who are competent in calculus and are taking physics, astrophysics, or engineering at degree level. It is also useful as a reference book for the professional scientist.







Principles of Electrodynamics


Book Description

The 1988 Nobel Prize winner establishes the subject's mathematical background, reviews the principles of electrostatics, then introduces Einstein's special theory of relativity and applies it to topics throughout the book.

Classical Electromagnetism in a Nutshell


Book Description

A comprehensive, modern introduction to electromagnetism This graduate-level physics textbook provides a comprehensive treatment of the basic principles and phenomena of classical electromagnetism. While many electromagnetism texts use the subject to teach mathematical methods of physics, here the emphasis is on the physical ideas themselves. Anupam Garg distinguishes between electromagnetism in vacuum and that in material media, stressing that the core physical questions are different for each. In vacuum, the focus is on the fundamental content of electromagnetic laws, symmetries, conservation laws, and the implications for phenomena such as radiation and light. In material media, the focus is on understanding the response of the media to imposed fields, the attendant constitutive relations, and the phenomena encountered in different types of media such as dielectrics, ferromagnets, and conductors. The text includes applications to many topical subjects, such as magnetic levitation, plasmas, laser beams, and synchrotrons. Classical Electromagnetism in a Nutshell is ideal for a yearlong graduate course and features more than 300 problems, with solutions to many of the advanced ones. Key formulas are given in both SI and Gaussian units; the book includes a discussion of how to convert between them, making it accessible to adherents of both systems. Offers a complete treatment of classical electromagnetism Emphasizes physical ideas Separates the treatment of electromagnetism in vacuum and material media Presents key formulas in both SI and Gaussian units Covers applications to other areas of physics Includes more than 300 problems




Advanced Electromagnetism: Foundations: Theory And Applications


Book Description

Advanced Electromagnetism: Foundations, Theory and Applications treats what is conventionally called electromagnetism or Maxwell's theory within the context of gauge theory or Yang-Mills theory. A major theme of this book is that fields are not stand-alone entities but are defined by their boundary conditions. The book has practical relevance to efficient antenna design, the understanding of forces and stresses in high energy pulses, ring laser gyros, high speed computer logic elements, efficient transfer of power, parametric conversion, and many other devices and systems. Conventional electromagnetism is shown to be an underdeveloped, rather than a completely developed, field of endeavor, with major challenges in development still to be met.
