Course description

Electrodynamics and Relativistic Theory explore the interaction between electric and magnetic fields, governed by Maxwell’s equations and special relativity. These principles describe the behavior of charged particles at high velocities and their impact on electromagnetic waves. Understanding relativistic electrodynamics is essential for advanced physics, including quantum field theory and astrophysics. This field bridges classical electromagnetism with Einstein’s theory of relativity.
