Lecture 1 : Maxwell's equations: a review
1. Maxwell's equations in vacuum
In the language of differential vector calculus
Gauss's law:
(1)
Gauss's law for magnetism:
(2)
Maxwell-Faraday equation:
(3)
Ampere's law with Maxwell's correction:
(4)
We shall now look at interpretations of these expressions by using their integral forms.
Gauss's law:
