  2. Field strength - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Field_strength

    For example, an electromagnetic field has both electric field strength and magnetic field strength. As an application, in radio frequency telecommunications, the signal strength excites a receiving antenna and thereby induces a voltage at a specific frequency and polarization in order to provide an input signal to a radio receiver.

  3. Mathematical descriptions of the electromagnetic field

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_descriptions...

    The Maxwell equations in the presence of matter then become: = = where the current 3-form J still satisfies the continuity equation dJ = 0. When the fields are expressed as linear combinations (of exterior products) of basis forms θ i, =. the constitutive relation takes the form = where the field coefficient functions and the constitutive ...

  4. Ponderomotive force - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ponderomotive_force

    In physics, a ponderomotive force is a nonlinear force that a charged particle experiences in an inhomogeneous oscillating electromagnetic field. It causes the particle to move towards the area of the weaker field strength, rather than oscillating around an initial point as happens in a homogeneous field.

    Continuous charge distribution. The volume charge density ρ is the amount of charge per unit volume (cube), surface charge density σ is amount per unit surface area (circle) with outward unit normal nĚ‚, d is the dipole moment between two point charges, the volume density of these is the polarization density P.

  6. Near and far field - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Near_and_far_field

    The near field refers to places nearby the antenna conductors, or inside any polarizable media surrounding it, where the generation and emission of electromagnetic waves can be interfered with while the field lines remain electrically attached to the antenna, hence absorption of radiation in the near field by adjacent conducting objects detectably affects the loading on the signal generator ...

  7. Specific absorption rate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Specific_absorption_rate

    SAR measures exposure to fields between 100 kHz and 10 GHz (known as radio waves). [2] It is commonly used to measure power absorbed from mobile phones and during MRI scans. The value depends heavily on the geometry of the part of the body that is exposed to the RF energy and on the exact location and geometry of the RF source.

  8. Electromagnetic tensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_tensor

    In electromagnetism, the electromagnetic tensor or electromagnetic field tensor (sometimes called the field strength tensor, Faraday tensor or Maxwell bivector) is a mathematical object that describes the electromagnetic field in spacetime.

  9. Quadrupole ion trap - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadrupole_ion_trap

    In experimental physics, a quadrupole ion trap or paul trap is a type of ion trap that uses dynamic electric fields to trap charged particles. They are also called radio frequency (RF) traps or Paul traps in honor of Wolfgang Paul , who invented the device [ 1 ] [ 2 ] and shared the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1989 for this work. [ 3 ]
