Two methods are explained to exactly solve Maxwell's equations where permittivity, permeability and conductivity may vary in space. In the constitutive relations, retardation is regarded. If the material properties depend but on one…

Axions and axion-like particles generically couple to QED via the axion-photon-photon interaction. This leads to a modification of Maxwell's equations known in the literature as axion-electrodynamics. The new form of Maxwell's equations…
