Electromagnetics: Sources

17 minute read

Published:

The causal chain of source $\longrightarrow$ field $\longrightarrow$ observable reflects the factorization of physics into three components: excitations (sources), propagation through a medium (determined by materials and boundary conditions), and measuring quantities (observations). The notes within my classical electromagnetism section will follow this structure with the first section modeling sources.

“Beauty, like order, occurs in many places in this world, but only as a local and temporary fight against the Niagara of increasing entropy.”

Having established in Chapter 1 that sources ($\rho, \mathbf{J}$) give rise to electromagnetic fields, we now turn to the second link in the causal chain: Propagation.
