With Memory

In this paper, the formulation of time-fractional (TF) electrodynamics is derived based on the Riemann-Silberstein (RS) vector. With the use of this vector and fractional-order derivatives, one can write TF Maxwell’s equations in a compact form, which allows for modelling of energy dissipation and dynamics of electromagnetic systems with memory. Therefore, we formulate TF Maxwell’s equations using the RS vector and analyse their properties from the point of view of classical electrodynamics, i.e., energy and momentum conservation, reciprocity, causality. Afterwards, we derive classical solutions for wave-propagation problems, assuming helical, spherical, and cylindrical symmetries of solutions. The results are supported by numerical simulations and their analysis. Discussion of relations between the TF Schrödinger equation and TF electrodynamics is included as well.

The unity of the structure of matter fields with flavor symmetry laws involves that the left-handed neutrino in the field of emission can be converted into a right-handed one and vice versa. These transitions together with classical solutions of the Dirac equation testify in favor of the unidenticality of masses, energies, and momenta of neutrinos of the different components. If we recognize such a difference in masses, energies, and momenta, accepting its ideas about that the left-handed neutrino and the right-handed antineutrino refer to long-lived leptons, and the right-handed neutrino and the left-handed antineutrino are short-lived fermions, we would follow the mathematical logic of the Dirac equation in the presence of the flavor symmetrical mass, energy, and momentum matrices. From their point of view, nature itself separates Minkowski space into left and right spaces concerning a certain middle dynamical line. Thereby, it characterizes any Dirac particle both by left and by right space–time coordinates. It is not excluded therefore that whatever the main purposes each of earlier experiments about sterile neutrinos, namely, about right-handed short-lived neutrinos may serve as the source of facts confirming the existence of a mirror Minkowski space–time.

Polarised Light

In the theory of radiation recently advanced by Sir J. J. Thomson it is supposed that electromagnetic waves and quanta are both present in a beam of light. The quanta, which are responsible for the photoelectric effects, are closed rings of electric force propagated in the direction normal to the plane of the ring. Professor Whittaker has discussed this conception from the point of view of Maxwell's equations, and has shown that it is consistent with them ; or rather with an extension of them in which a magnetic density μ analogous to the electric density ρ is introduced.

In this paper geometric algebra and its aplication in the theory of classical electrodynamic will  be studied. Geometric algebra provide many simplification and new insight in the theoretical formulation and physical aplication of theory. In this work has been studied aplication of geometric algebra in classical electrodynamics especially Maxwell’s equations. Maxwell’s equations was formulated in one compact equation ÑF=J. The various equation parts are easily identified by their  grades.

Chapter 3 explores the concept of the field, which is necessary to describe forces without resorting to action at a distance, and uses it to describe electromagnetism, as encapsulated by the Maxwell equations. First, scalar fields and the Klein–Gordon equation are discussed. Vector calculus is introduced. The physical meaning of Maxwell’s equations is explained. The equations are then solved for electrostatic fields. Non-uniform charge distributions and dipole moments are discussed. The vector and scalar potentials are introduced. Electromagnetic wave solutions of Maxwell’s equations are found and the Hertz experiment is described. Magnetostatics is discussed briefly. The Lorentz force is described and used to determine the motion of a charged particle in a cyclotron or synchrotron. The action principle for electromagnetism is described. The energy and momentum carried by the electromagnetic field are calculated. The reaction of a charged particle to its own electromagnetic field is considered.

The main object of the paper is to discuss the possibility of a body of homogeneous fluid acting as a self-exciting dynamo. The discussion is for the most part confined to the solution of Maxwell’s equations for a sphere of electrically conducting fluid in which there are specified velocities. Solutions are obtained by expanding the velocity and the fields in spherical harmonics to give a set of simultaneous linear differential equations which are solved by numerical methods. Solutions exist when harmonics up to degree four are included. The convergence of the solutions when more harmonics are included is discussed, but convergence has not been proved. The simultaneous solution of Maxwell’s equations and the hydrodynamic equations has not been attempted, but a velocity system has been chosen that seems reasonable from a dynamical point of view. A parameter in the velocity system has been adjusted to satisfy the conservation of angular momentum in a rough way. Orders of magnitude are derived for a number of quantities connected with the dynamo theory of terrestrial magnetism. It is concluded that the dynamo theory does provide a self-consistent account of the origin of the earth’s magnetic field and raises no insuperable difficulties in other directions.

1. Formulation of the problem. - The propagation of electromagnetic waves in a homogeneous isotropic medium showing metallic conductivity has been treated phenomenologically on the basis of classical electrodynamics. If in Maxwell's equations for the electromagnetic field curl E = - 1/ c ∂B/∂ t , curl H = 1/ c (∂D/∂ t + 4πI), div D = 4πρ, div B = 0, we assume that D = εE, B = μH, I = σE, (1) where e is the dielectric constant, u the permeability and q the electrical conductivity, we get curl E = - μ/c ∂H/∂ t , curl H = 1/ c (ε ∂E/∂ t 4πσE), div E = 4πρ/ε. div H =0.

Realistic modeling of electromagnetic wave propagation in the radar frequency band requires a full solution of Maxwell’s equations as well as an adequate description of the material properties. We present a finite‐difference time‐domain (FDTD) solution of Maxwell’s equations that allows accounting for the frequency dependence of the dielectric permittivity and electrical conductivity typical of many near‐surface materials. This algorithm is second‐order accurate in time and fourth‐order accurate in space, conditionally stable, and computationally only marginally more expensive than its standard equivalent without frequency‐dependent material properties. Empirical rules on spatial wavefield sampling are derived through systematic investigations of the influence of various parameter combinations on the numerical dispersion curves. Since this algorithm intrinsically models energy absorption, efficient absorbing boundaries are implemented by surrounding the computational domain by a thin (⩽2 dominant wavelengths) highly attenuating frame. The importance of accurate modeling in frequency‐dependent media is illustrated by applying this algorithm to two‐dimensional examples from archaeology and environmental geophysics.
