A theory where the gravitational, Maxwell and Dirac fields (mathematically represented as particular sections of a convenient Clifford bundle) are supposed fields in Faraday's sense living in Minkowski spacetime is presented. In our theory…
We investigate which are the independent equations of continuum electrodynamics and what is their number, beginning with the standard equations used in special and in general relativity. We check by using differential identities that there…
Maxwell's equations are valid only in Lorentz frame i.e. in inertial frame where the Einstein synchronization procedure is used to assign values of the time coordinate. Einstein time order must be applied and kept in consistent way in both…
A unified, consistent and simple view of the Faraday law of induction is presented, which consists of two points: discriminating the lab- from the rest-frame electric field and understanding it is the impossibility for both fields to vanish…
The development of relational electromagnetism after Gauss appears to stop around 1870. Maxwell recognised relational electromagnetism as mathematically equivalent to his own formulae and called for an explanation of why so different…
Modern undergraduate textbooks in electricity and magnetism typically focus on a force representation of electrodynamics with an emphasis on Maxwell's Equations and the Lorentz Force Law. The vector potential $\mathbf{A}$ and scalar…
In this note, we propose an exegesis of the Maxwell equations for electromagnetism. We begin with an analogy between the homogeneous Maxwell equations and the equations needed to describe the vorticity field of an incompressible inviscid…
Classical electrodynamics can be divided into two parts. In the first one, with the use of a plenty of directed quantities, namely multivectors and differential forms, no scalar product is necessary. It is called premetric electrodynamics.…
In this paper, we first review Huei's formulation in which it is shown that the linearized Einstein equations can be written in the same form as the Maxwell equations. We eliminate some imperfections like the scalar potential which is ill…
The Einstein-Hilbert worldspace action is used to investigate the dynamics of extended object. In the Robertson-Walker worldspace, this is seen to introduce a pressureless density which could contribute to dark matter. Such pressureless…
Maxwell's mature presentation of his equations emphasized the unity of electromagnetism and mechanics, subsuming both as "dynamical systems". That intuition of unity has proved both fruitful, as a source of pregnant concepts, and broadly…
The nonlocal electrodynamics of accelerated systems is discussed in connection with the development of Lorentz-invariant nonlocal field equations. Nonlocal Maxwell's equations are presented explicitly for certain linearly accelerated…
A new category of "intrinsic" effects is proposed to be added to the two already known kinematic and dynamical categories. An example of intrinsic effect is predicted, its origin source is established, and a scheme of its experimental…
The Maxwell equations in the presence of sources are first derived without making use of the potentials and the Hamilton-Jacobi equation for classical electrodynamics is written down. The manifestly gauge invariant theory is then quantized…
Since the appearance of Einstein's paper {\em"On the Electrodynamics of Moving Bodies"} and the birth of special relativity, it is understood that the theory was basically coded within Maxwell's equations. The celebrated mass-energy…
The purpose of this course is to provide an introduction to Electromagnetic Theory. The foundations of electrodynamics starting from the nature of electrical force up to the level of Maxwell equations solutions are presented. It starts with…
Maxwell-Lorenz theory describes only vortex electromagnetic processes. Potential component of the magnetic field is usually excluded by the introduction of mathematical terms: Coulomb and Lorenz gauges. Proposed approach to the construction…
We show explicitly that the Hertz-form Maxwell's equations and their extensions can be obtained from the non-relativistic expansion of Lorentz transformation of Maxwell's equations. The explicit expression for the parameter $\alpha$ in the…
The Michelson-Morley experiment led Einstein to introduce the concept of spacetime and to propose that all of the laws of physics are Lorentz invariant. However, so far only the Lorentz invariance of electromagnetism has been convincingly…
Maxwell's equations are formulated in arbitrary moving frames by means of tetrad fields, which are interpreted as reference frames adapted to observers in space-time. We assume the existence of a general distribution of charges and currents…
