For the past 100 years physicists have debated the nature of the momentum of light inside material media. Hermann Minkowski, for example, asserts that within a transparent dielectric the momentum of a photon is the photon's vacuum momentum multiplied by the refractive index of the dielectric. An opposing theory postulated by Max Abraham, contends that the vacuum momentum must instead be divided by the refractive index. There have also been questions about the electromagnetic momentum inside magnetic media, and whether or not a part of the momentum is hidden. This book explains the laws

"In der gesamten physikalischen Lehrbuchliteratur gibt es wohl kaum ein anderes Werk, das auf seinem Feld so unangefochten eine Spitzenstellung behauptet wie das Elektrodynamik-Buch von Jackson, und das bereits seit vier Jahrzehnten." - Physik Journal. Die deutsche Übersetzung dieses Klassikers der theoretischen Physik erscheint jetzt in einer sorgfältig durchgesehenen Neuauflage. Fehler in Gleichungen und Formeln sowie typographische Unstimmigkeiten wurden durchgehend verbessert. Hiermit wird das Werk seinem Anspruch an Genauigkeit und Lesbarkeit weiterhin gerecht. Einzigartig bleibt die konkurrenzlos hohe Anzahl von konkret gerechneten Beispielen, exakt durchgerechneten Fällen und zahlreichen Übungsaufgaben. Nach wie vor ist das Buch seit der 3. Auflage größtenteils in SI geschrieben. Seine Anwendungsnähe (auch zur Experimentalphysik) wird sowohl von Studenten als auch von Wissenschaftlern, Hochschullehrern und Ingenieuren geschätzt. The German translation of this classic of theoretical physics is now available in a revised edition. Errors in equations and formulas, as well as typographical discrepancies have been corrected throughout. With these revisions the work has increased its claim to accuracy and legibility. Unique to this textbook of electrodynamics are the incomparably large number of calculated examples and special cases and the many exercises at the end of each chapter. As in the previous edition, the book is for the most part written with SI units. Its proximity to applied science (including experimental physics) is valued by students, scientists, teachers and engineers alike.

This book gives a compact overview about actual research in the field of Electromagnetics and Network Theory and its Microwave Applications. It contains aspects on antennas and wave propagation, microwave- and communication-systems and methods for the numerical modeling of components, networks and structures being part of these systems. An actual state of research in antennas and propagation is given as well as wave propagation in RF-lines and electric networks which are crucial for the investigation of microwave systems like radar-, radio-location- and communication- systems. Especially in mobile applications, radar- , radio-location- and navigation- systems as well as microwave sensors are more and more in use. Therefore an actual state of research in this field is given. Actual results of research on such systems are shown for automotive radar, a high precision radio-location-system, RF-sensors and RF-measurement technologies. The wide field of communication systems is further discussed where an overview about progress in mobile communication and wireless data transmission is given and results of actual research are shown. At last, actual numerical methods are discussed which are essential for the estimation of electromagnetic effects in all the applications shown previously. In the scope between the treatment of very tiny structures and very large structures new ways are shown for the numerical modeling of the electromagnetic field in nanostructures as well as in macrostructures and large periodic structures. The book is dedicated to Prof. Dr. Dr. hc. Peter Russer and his research work which is shown in his autobiography.

"In this text, the author develops alternate representations of electromagnetic power and energy that differ form the familiar Maxwell-Poynting theorem values (S and W) - yet are fully equivalent. The particular choice focuses on features highly-localized power and energy components and emphasizes the circuit rather than the wave nature of theses quantities. Moreover, unlike the Poynting vector, this exact representation merges smoothly with well-known quasistatic approximations that have long been used to calculate power flows in both lumped and distributed circuits operating at low-frequencies"--Provided by publisher.
