Outline:

This is Classic Electrodynamics II for International Graduate Program students. The materials to be covered are included in the book: Classic Electrodynamics by Jack son. It is a continuation of Classic Electrodynamics I. Therefore the chapters to be tought will mainly from the second half of the book. They are:

  1. Waveguides, Resoant Cavities, and Optical Fibers
  2. Radiating Systems, Multipole Fields and Radiation
  3. Scattering and Diffraction
  4. Dynamics of Relativistic Particles and Electromagnetic Fields
  5. Collisions, Energy Loss, and Scattering of Charged Particles, Cherenkov and Tansition Radiation
  6. Radiation by Moving Charges
  7. Remsstrahlung, Method of Virtual Quanta, Radiative Beta Processes
  8. Radiation Damping, Classical Models of Charged Parciles

Book to be used:

Classic Electrodynamics, by J. D. Jackson. Published by John Wiley & Son. Inc.

Assessment:

There will be homework for each chapter (account for 60% of the final grade), one middle and one final examinations (account for 40% of the final grade).
