  2. Vacuum permittivity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vacuum_permittivity

    Vacuum permittivity, commonly denoted ε 0 (pronounced "epsilon nought" or "epsilon zero"), is the value of the absolute dielectric permittivity of classical vacuum.It may also be referred to as the permittivity of free space, the electric constant, or the distributed capacitance of the vacuum.

  3. Impedance of free space - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impedance_of_free_space

    μ 0 ≈ 12.566 × 10 −7 H/m is the magnetic constant, also known as the permeability of free space, ε 0 ≈ 8.854 × 10 −12 F/m is the electric constant, also known as the permittivity of free space, c is the speed of light in free space, [9] [10] The reciprocal of Z 0 is sometimes referred to as the admittance of free space and ...

  4. Permittivity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permittivity

    Another common term encountered for both absolute and relative permittivity is the dielectric constant which has been deprecated in physics and engineering [2] as well as in chemistry. [ 3 ] By definition, a perfect vacuum has a relative permittivity of exactly 1 whereas at standard temperature and pressure , air has a relative permittivity of ...

  5. Electric displacement field - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_displacement_field

    In this equation, is the number of free charges per unit volume. These charges are the ones that have made the volume non-neutral, and they are sometimes referred to as the space charge . This equation says, in effect, that the flux lines of D must begin and end on the free charges.

  6. Relative permittivity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relative_permittivity

    The relative permittivity of a medium is related to its electric susceptibility, χ e, as ε r (ω) = 1 + χ e. In anisotropic media (such as non cubic crystals) the relative permittivity is a second rank tensor. The relative permittivity of a material for a frequency of zero is known as its static relative permittivity.

  7. Electric flux - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_flux

    ε 0 is the electric constant (a universal constant, also called the permittivity of free space) (ε 0 ≈ 8.854 187 817 × 10 −12 F/m) This relation is known as Gauss's law for electric fields in its integral form and it is one of Maxwell's equations.
