Boundary-value problems, Green's functions and multipole expansions, magnetostatics, Faraday's law of induction, retarded potentials, Poynting's theorem and conservation laws, gauge invariance. Propagation of electromagnetic waves. Presentation of radiation from moving charges, classical electron theory. Prerequisite: A background in electricity and magnetism such as covered PHYS 401 is highly recommended. This course is not eligible for Credit/D/Fail grading.
