Maxwell's equations form the cornerstone of electromagnetic theory, offering a complete description of how electric and magnetic fields interact with matter. In combination with state‐of‐the‐art ...

If you hang around with physics people long enough, some­one eventually will bring up Maxwell's equations. Maybe as part of a joke, or on a T-shirt or a tattoo. But they'll be somewhere. So even if ...

You don’t have to know how a car engine works to drive a car — but you can bet all the drivers in the Indy 500 have a better than average understanding of what’s going on under the hood. All of our ...

IN NATURE of February 5, Dr. C. V. Drysdale attempts a simplification of Maxwell's electrodynamic equations, on the grounds that these in their original form are difficult to comprehend and to apply, ...

Maxwell's Equations tell us a lot about electromagnetic interactions and physics. In the mid-1800s, Scottish physicist James Maxwell thought something interesting was going on with electric fields. So ...

When you think of art, you might think of portraiture, landscapes, or other kinds of paintings. But mathematics can feel artistic at times, too. We’ve all seen gorgeous Mandelbrot fractals, and less ...

A special focus of the article is on the fact that the fabric of Maxwell's equations allows for quantization of charges. When Thomson discovered electrons, it was proved that electric flux is ...

More than one hundred and fifty years have passed since the publication of James Clerk Maxwell's "A Dynamical Theory of the Electromagnetic Field" (1865). What would our lives be without this ...

This paper rigorously analyses preconditioners for the time-harmonic Maxwell equations with absorption, where the PDE is discretised using curl-conforming finite-element methods of fixed, arbitrary ...
