  2. List of textbooks in electromagnetism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_textbooks_in...

    There are several widely used undergraduate textbooks in electromagnetism, including David Griffiths' Introduction to Electrodynamics as well as Electricity and Magnetism by Edward Purcell and David Morin. [5]

  3. Introduction to Electrodynamics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Introduction_to...

    Introduction to Electrodynamics is a textbook by physicist David J. Griffiths. Generally regarded as a standard undergraduate text on the subject, [1] it began as lecture notes that have been perfected over time. [2] Its most recent edition, the fifth, was published in 2023 by Cambridge University. [3]

  4. David J. Griffiths - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_J._Griffiths

    Griffiths is principally known as the author of three highly regarded textbooks for undergraduate physics students: Introduction to Elementary Particles (published in 1987, second edition published 2008), Introduction to Quantum Mechanics (published in 1995, third edition published 2018), and Introduction to Electrodynamics (published in 1981, fifth edition published in 2024).

  5. Electricity and Magnetism (book) - Wikipedia

    Electricity and Magnetism is a standard textbook in electromagnetism originally written by Nobel laureate Edward Mills Purcell in 1963. [1] Along with David Griffiths' Introduction to Electrodynamics, this book is one of the most widely adopted undergraduate textbooks in electromagnetism. [2]

  6. 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.

  7. Introduction to electromagnetism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Introduction_to...

    Michael Faraday discovered the converse, that magnetism could induce electric currents, and James Clerk Maxwell put the whole thing together in a unified theory of electromagnetism. Maxwell's equations further indicated that electromagnetic waves existed, and the experiments of Heinrich Hertz confirmed this, making radio possible.

  8. Classical electromagnetism and special relativity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Classical_electromagnetism...

    The theory of special relativity plays an important role in the modern theory of classical electromagnetism.It gives formulas for how electromagnetic objects, in particular the electric and magnetic fields, are altered under a Lorentz transformation from one inertial frame of reference to another.

  9. Standard Model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_Model

    Electromagnetism is the only long-range force in the Standard Model. It is mediated by photons and couples to electric charge. [ 57 ] Electromagnetism is responsible for a wide range of phenomena including atomic electron shell structure , chemical bonds , electric circuits and electronics .
