Physics of Classical Electromagnetism de Minoru Fujimoto

Physics of Classical Electromagnetism

Autor Minoru Fujimoto
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 20 mai 2007
This book is unique because unlike others on the subject that focus on mathematical arguments, this volume emphasizes the original field concept, aiming at objectives in modern information technology. Written primarily for undergraduate students of physics and engineering, this book serves as a useful reference for graduate students and researchers too. With concise introductory arguments for the physics of electromagnetism, this book covers basic topics including the nature of space-time-dependent radiations in modern applications.

Descriere

The Maxwell theory of electromagnetism was well established in the latter ni- teenth century, when H. R. Hertz demonstrated the electromagnetic wave. The theory laid the foundation for physical optics, from which the quantum concept emerged for microscopic physics. Einstein realized that the speed of electrom- netic propagation is a universal constant, and thereby recognized the Maxwell equations to compose a fundamental law in all inertial systems of reference. On the other hand, the pressing demand for ef?cient radar systems during WWII accelerated studies on guided waves, resulting in today’s advanced telecommu- cation technology, in addition to a new radio- and microwave spectroscopy. The studies were further extended to optical frequencies, and laser electronics and - phisticated semi-conducting devices are now familiar in daily life. Owing to these advances, our knowledge of electromagnetic radiation has been signi?cantly - graded beyond plane waves in free space. Nevertheless, in the learning process the basic theory remains founded upon early empirical rules, and the traditional teaching should therefore be modernized according to priorities in the modern era. In spite of the fact that there are many books available on this well-established theme, I was motivated to write this book, reviewing the laws in terms of cont- porary knowledge in order to deal with modern applications. Here I followed two basic guidelines. First, I considered electronic charge and spin as empirical in the description of electromagnetism.

Recenzii

From the reviews:
"There are quite a large number of works that discuss electromagnetics from a mathematical/engineering perspective. Fujimoto (Univ. of Guelph) tries to present a slightly different approach, focusing on understanding the physics of electromagnetics … . Every chapter starts with a physical observation and continues with a general theorem/conclusion. … Addition of higher-quality illustrations and figures would improve the visual aspects of the book, and end-of-the-chapter problems would help students. Summing Up: Recommended. Upper-division undergraduates through professionals." (B. Kordi, CHOICE, Vol. 45 (7), 2008)
"In Physics of Classical Electromagnetism, Minoru Fujimoto presents basic electromagnetism with an overview of current problems in high-frequency physics. … The mathematical details are provided in the appendix. A list of references and index are also included. The book is intended for students of physics and engineering at undergraduate levels, and should also serve as a reference for graduate students and researchers." (Reva Garg, Optics and Photonics News, December, 2007)
"‘Physics of classical electromagnetism’ by Minoru Fujimoto is a comprehensive and pedagogically well organized textbook for both the undergraduate and graduate students in physics and electrical engineering. It provides a modern approach in treating a broad variety of subjects in the field of classical electrodynamics … ." (Vladimir Cadež, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1163, 2009)

Textul de pe ultima copertă

The classical electromagnetism described by the Maxwell equations constitutes a fundamental law in contemporary physics. Even with the advent of sophisticated new materials, the principles of classical electromagnetism are still active in various applied areas in today’s advanced communication techniques.
Physics of Classical Electromagnetism, by Minoru Fujimoto, is written with concise introductory arguments emphasizing the original field concept, with an aim at understanding objectives in modern information technology.
Following basic discussions of electromagnetism with a modernized approach, this book will provide readers with an overview of current problems in high-frequency physics. To further the reader’s understanding of the concepts and applications discussed, each illustration within the book shows the location of all active charges, and the author has provided many worked-out examples throughout the book.
Physics of Classical Electromagnetism is intended for students in physics and engineering but will serve as a useful reference to graduate students and researchers in fields including but not limited to classical electrodynamics, electromagnetism, optics and lasers.
Minoru Fujimoto is (retired) Professor of Physics at the University of Guelph, Ontario, Canada. He is also the author of The Physics of Structural Phase Transitions (Springer, 2005).
