These tests can distinguish the Maxwell theory from competing theories like the Weber electrodynamics Weber theory . Position Dependent Tests Main Photon Experimental checks on photon mass Precision tests of Coulomb s law are made to test whether the photon has a nonzero mass . If Coulomb s law were not exactly valid, the inside of a conductor would not have an electric field when the conductor is exposed to an external electric field . These results can be framed as limits on the power in Coulomb s law or as a limit on the mass of the photon. ref cite journal last1 Plimpton first1 S. last2 Lawton first2 W. title A Very Accurate Test of Coulomb s Law of Force Between Charges journal Physical Review volume 50 page 1066 year 1936 doi 10.1103 PhysRev.50.1066 bibcode 1936PhRv...50.1066P issue 11 ref A null result of such an experiment has set a limit of m 10 sup 14 sup eV c sup 2 sup . ref cite journal last1 Williams first1 E. last2 Faller first2 J. last3 Hill first3 H. title New Experimental Test of Coulomb s Law A Laboratory Upper Limit on the Photon Rest Mass journal Physical Review Letters volume 26 page 721 year 1971 doi 10.1103 PhysRevLett.26.721 bibcode 1971PhRvL..26..721W issue 12 ref Velocity Dependent Tests mergeto Weber electrodynamics date May 2012 Velocity and acceleration dependent corrections to Maxwell s equations arise in Weber electrodynamics.

This page is about reciprocity theorems in classical electromagnetism. See also Reciprocity mathematics for unrelated reciprocity theorems, and Reciprocity disambiguation for more general usages of the term. In Maxwell s equations classical electromagnetism , reciprocity refers to a variety of related theorems involving the interchange of time harmonic mathematics harmonic electric current density current densities sources and the resulting electromagnetic field s in Maxwell s equations for time invariant linear media under certain constraints. Reciprocity is closely related to the concept of Hermitian operator s from linear algebra , applied to electromagnetism. Perhaps the most common and general such theorem is Lorentz reciprocity and its various special cases such as Rayleigh Carson reciprocity , named after work by Hendrik Lorentz in 1896 following analogous results regarding sound by Lord Rayleigh and Helmholtz Potton, 2004 . Loosely, it states that the relationship between an oscillating current and the resulting electric field is unchanged if one interchanges the points where the current is placed and where the field is measured . For the specific case of an electrical network , it is sometimes phrased as the statement that voltage s and Current electricity current s at different points in the network can be interchanged. More technically, it follows that the mutual impedance of a first circuit due to a second is the same as the mutual impedance of the second circuit due to the first. Reciprocity is useful in optics , which apart from quantum effects can be expressed in terms of classical electromagnetism, but also in terms of radiometry . There is also an analogous theorem in electrostatics , known as Green s reciprocity , relating the interchange of electric potential and electric charge density . Forms of the reciprocity theorems are used in many electromagnetic ... Wesley Reading, MA, 1962 . Citations references Category Electromagnetism Category Circuit theorems ... more details

First of all, it gives formulas for how electromagnetic objects, in particular the electric field electric and magnetic field s, are altered under a Lorentz transformation from one inertial frame of reference to another. Secondly, it sheds light on the relationship between electricity and magnetism, showing that frame of reference determines if an observation follows electrostatic or magnetic laws. Third, it motivates a compact and convenient notation for the laws of electromagnetism, namely the manifestly covariant tensor form.

electromagnetism cTopic Covariant formulation The covariance and contravariance of vectors covariant formulation of classical electromagnetism refers to ways of writing the laws of classical electromagnetism in particular, Maxwell s equations and the Lorentz force in a form which is manifestly covariant i.e. in terms of covariant four vector s and four tensor tensors , in the formalism of special relativity . These expressions both make it simple to prove that the laws of classical electromagnetism take the same form in any inertial frame inertial coordinate system , and also provide a way to translate the fields and forces from one frame to another. The Minkowski metric used in this article is assumed to have the form diag 1, 1, 1, 1 . The purely spatial components of the tensors including vectors are given in SI units . This article uses the classical treatment of tensors and the Einstein summation convention throughout. Where the equations are specified as holding in a vacuum, one could instead regard them as the formulation of Maxwell s equations in terms of total charge and current.

Context date October 2009 In accelerator physics , rigidity is a concept used to determine the effect of particular magnetic fields on the motion of the charged particles. It is a measure of the momentum of the particle, and it refers to the fact that a higher momentum particle will have a higher resistance to deflection by a magnetic field. It is defined as R B p q , where B is the magnetic field, is the gyroradius of the particle due to this field, p is the particle momentum, and q is its charge. It is frequently referred to as simply B . ref cite book last Lee first S.Y. authorlink coauthors title Accelerator Physics, Second Edition publisher World Scientific date 2004 location url doi id isbn 981 256 200 1 page 576 ref It is important to note that the rigidity is defined by the action of a static, dipole, field, whose field lines are perpendicular to the velocity vector of the particle. This will cause a force perpendicular both to the velocity vector, and to the field lines, defining a plane through which the particle moves. The definition of the Lorenz force implies that the particle s motion will be circular, thus giving a constant radius of curvature. If the particle momentum, p , is given in GeV c , then the rigidity, in tesla metres, is B 3.3356 p q .

Image Transformer current distribution.PNG thumb Magnitude of current density in the windings of a 20kHz transformer. In a conductor carrying alternating current , if currents are flowing through one or more other nearby conductors, such as within a closely wound coil of wire, the distribution of current within the first conductor will be constrained to smaller regions. The resulting current crowding is termed the proximity effect . This crowding gives an increase in the effective resistance of the circuit, which increases with frequency. Explanation A changing magnetic field will influence the distribution of an electric current flowing within an electrical conductor , by electromagnetic induction . When an alternating current AC flows through an isolated conductor, it creates an associated alternating magnetic field around it. The alternating magnetic field induces eddy currents in adjacent conductors, altering the overall distribution of current flowing through them. The result is that the current is concentrated in the areas of the conductor furthest away from nearby conductors carrying current in the same direction. The proximity effect can significantly increase the AC Electrical resistance resistance of adjacent conductors when compared to its resistance to a direct current DC current. The effect increases with frequency . At higher frequencies, the AC resistance of a conductor can easily exceed ten times its DC resistance. Example For example, if two wires carrying the same alternating current lie parallel to one another, as would be found in a coil used in an inductor or transformer , the magnetic field of one wire will induce longitudinal eddy currents in the adjacent wire, that flow in long loops along the wire, in the same direction as the main current on the side of the wire facing away from the other wire, and back in the opposite direction on the side of the wire facing the other wire. Thus the eddy current will reinforce the main current on the side ... more details
