Course content
The course is designed especially for students who deal with electromagnetic field or plasma modelling in their dissertation. The course extends and deepens the student's knowledge and skills in the following fields of electromagnetic field theory. - Simple model for constitute relations of electric field in matter (conductivity, dielectric constant, plasma, polar molecules, Clausius-Mossotti equation), magnetic properties of matter. - Basics of relativistic electrodynamics ? electric charge in electromagnetic field, 4-vector potential of field, action principle for electrodynamics, Lagrangian and Hamiltonian for electric charge in electromagnetic field, equation of charge movement in field, calibration invariance, antisymmetric field-strength tensor, Lorentz transformation of electromagnetic fields, relativistic invariants of field, covariant form of Maxwell equations, conservation laws for electromagnetic fields interacting with charged particles - Waveguides, resonant cavities, and optical fibers - Other selected parts of field theory suitable for student's creative activity
