We outline a regular way for solving Maxwell's equations. We take, as the starting point, the notion of vector potentials. The rationale for introducing this notion in electrodynamics is that the set of Maxwell's equations is seemingly…

After finding the really self-consistent electromagnetic equations for a plasma, we proceed in a similar fashion to find how the MHD equations have to be modified accordingly. Substantially this is done by replacing the "Lorentz" force…

In electrostatics, we can use either potential energy or field energy to ensure conservation of energy. In electrodynamics, the former option is unavailable. To ensure conservation of energy, we must attribute energy to the electromagnetic…
Electric and magnetic Hertz potentials are a formalism for obtaining solutions of Maxwell's equations from solutions of the inhomogeneous wave equation, with polarisation and magnetisation as the sources. We provide an overview of their…

There is actually a mistake in this paper, but it is still a nice try worth a read. It is (not quite) proved that within the framework of Special Relativity, a force exerted on a \emph{classical particle} by a field must be of the form…
