  2. Displacement current - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Displacement_current

    This polarization is the displacement current as it was originally conceived by Maxwell. Maxwell made no special treatment of the vacuum, treating it as a material medium. For Maxwell, the effect of P was simply to change the relative permittivity ε r in the relation D = ε 0 ε r E. The modern justification of displacement current is ...

  3. Lenz's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lenz's_law

    The direction of an induced current can be determined using the right-hand rule to show which direction of current flow would create a magnetic field that would oppose the direction of changing flux through the loop. [8] In the examples above, if the flux is increasing, the induced field acts in opposition to it.

  4. Dynamical pictures - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamical_pictures

    In quantum mechanics, dynamical pictures (or representations) are the multiple equivalent ways to mathematically formulate the dynamics of a quantum system. The two most important ones are the Heisenberg picture and the Schrödinger picture .

  5. Ampère's circuital law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ampère's_circuital_law

    where current density J D is the displacement current, and J is the current density contribution actually due to movement of charges, both free and bound. Because ∇ ⋅ D = ρ , the charge continuity issue with Ampère's original formulation is no longer a problem. [ 22 ]

  6. History of Maxwell's equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_Maxwell's_equations

    J is the current density (with J tot being the total current including displacement current). [b] D is the displacement field (called the electric displacement by Maxwell). ρ is the free charge density (called the quantity of free electricity by Maxwell). A is the magnetic potential (called the angular impulse by Maxwell).

  7. Rosser's equation (physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rosser's_equation_(physics)

    Rosser's Equation is given by the following: + = = where: is the conduction-current density, is the transverse current density, is time, and is the scalar potential.. To understand Selvan's quotation we need the following terms: is charge density, is the magnetic vector potential, and is the displacement field.

  8. Jefimenko's equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jefimenko's_equations

    In electromagnetism, Jefimenko's equations (named after Oleg D. Jefimenko) give the electric field and magnetic field due to a distribution of electric charges and electric current in space, that takes into account the propagation delay (retarded time) of the fields due to the finite speed of light and relativistic effects.

  9. Inhomogeneous electromagnetic wave equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inhomogeneous...

    Maxwell's equations can directly give inhomogeneous wave equations for the electric field E and magnetic field B. [1] Substituting Gauss's law for electricity and Ampère's law into the curl of Faraday's law of induction, and using the curl of the curl identity ∇ × (∇ × X) = ∇(∇ ⋅ X) − ∇ 2 X (The last term in the right side is the vector Laplacian, not Laplacian applied on ...
