PHYS 712 - Electromag Theory II (3 units)
Relativistic formulation of electrodynamics. Motion of charges in electromagnetic fields. Radiation theory, cavities, wave guides. Wave scattering, diffraction, refraction, and dispersion. Multipole fields.
Units of Lecture: 3
Offered: Every Spring
Student Learning Outcomes:
Upon completion of this course:
1. Students will be able to demonstrate understanding of advanced topics in electromagnetic theory (see catalog description above).
2. Students will be able to further develop their problem solving skills in electromagnetic theory using advanced mathematical methods.
3. Students will be able to apply and refine their skill in practical applications of advanced mathematical methods including vector and tensor calculus, the Levi-Civita pseudo tensor, the Dirac delta function, the Green function, and the Gauss, Stokes, Green and Helmholtz theorems.
4. Students will be able to demonstrate improved practical mathematical physics skills in solving partial differential equations via the variable separation method, Fourier series, and series expansion over special functions such as Legendre polynomials, Bessel functions, and spherical harmonics.
