  2. Displacement current - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Displacement_current

    Displacement current density has the same units as electric current density, and it is a source of the magnetic field just as actual current is. However it is not an electric current of moving charges , but a time-varying electric field .

  3. Ampère's circuital law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ampère's_circuital_law

    The second term on the right hand side is the displacement current as originally conceived by Maxwell, associated with the polarization of the individual molecules of the dielectric material. Maxwell's original explanation for displacement current focused upon the situation that occurs in dielectric media.

  4. Maxwell's equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maxwell's_equations

    Maxwell's addition states that magnetic fields also relate to changing electric fields, which Maxwell called displacement current. The integral form states that electric and displacement currents are associated with a proportional magnetic field along any enclosing curve.

  5. Electric displacement field - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_displacement_field

    In physics, the electric displacement field (denoted by D), also called electric flux density or electric induction, is a vector field that appears in Maxwell's equations. It accounts for the electromagnetic effects of polarization and that of an electric field , combining the two in an auxiliary field .

    Magnetic displacement current or more properly the magnetic displacement current density is the familiar term ...

  7. Ampère's force law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ampère's_force_law

    Two current-carrying wires attract each other magnetically: The bottom wire has current I 1, which creates magnetic field B 1. The top wire carries a current I 2 through the magnetic field B 1, so (by the Lorentz force) the wire experiences a force F 12. (Not shown is the simultaneous process where the top wire makes a magnetic field which ...

  9. Talk:Displacement current - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Displacement_current

    The new displacement current uses a justification that is quite different from the justification that is used for Maxwell's original displacement current. The new displacement current uses a justification which is based on maintaining the solenoidal nature of Ampère's circuital law in capacitor circuits.
