The major focus is on the unifying features shared by classical electrodynamics and all other fundamental relativistic classical field theories. The book presents a balanced blend of derivations of phenomenological predictions from first principles on the one hand, and concrete applications on the other. Further, it highlights the internal inconsistencies of classical electrodynamics, and addresses and resolves often-ignored critical issues, such as the dynamics of massless charged particles, the infinite energy of the electromagnetic field, and the limits of the Green’s function method. Presenting a rich, multilayered, and critical exposition on the electromagnetic paradigm underlying the whole Universe, the book offers a valuable resource for researchers and graduate students in theoretical physics alike.UNITEXT for Physics,2198-7882PhysicsOpticsElectrodynamicsParticles (Nuclear physics)Quantum field theoryMathematical Methods in Physicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19013Classical Electrodynamicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P21070Elementary Particles, Quantum Field Theoryhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P23029Physics.Optics.Electrodynamics.Particles (Nuclear physics)Quantum field theory.Mathematical Methods in Physics.Classical Electrodynamics.Elementary Particles, Quantum Field Theory.537.6Lechner Kurtauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut524115MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910300558203321Classical Electrodynamics2523340UNINA
