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. 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 applications, such as analyzing electrical networks and antenna radio antenna systems. For example, reciprocity implies that antennas work equally well as transmitters ..., MA, 1962 .

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.

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 .
