Summary

This textbook covers classical electrodynamics, including the special theory of relativity, as far as it concerns electrodynamics. In addition, several peripheral areas such as solid-state physics, geometric and wave optics, X-ray scattering and dynamical diffraction, Lagrangian formalism and field quantization are touched upon. The notation may be unusual, as it was chosen to apply to ’all’ unit systems. This not only makes it easier to compare textbooks with different unit systems, but also…

About The Author

Dietmar Petrascheck

Dietmar Petrascheck studied physics at the University of Vienna where he also received his doctorate. In 1987 he completed his habilitation at the University of Linz and has been an associate professor since 1997.

Franz Schwabl (deceased) was full professor of theoretical physics at the Technical University of Munich and retired in 2003. He conducted research in the field of magnetic materials and investigated structure formation in driven, dissipative nonequilibrium systems. He is the author of the very well-known textbooks on Quantum Mechanics and Statistical Mechanics.
