| * In today's class, the discussion on $\delta S$ when it is related to the end point variations of $\delta t$ and $\delta \vec r$ did not go so well. I apologize. That is an important topic, although it is optional for this level. Here is a [[Lecture+#Note|cleaned up and clarified version of that discussion]]!—~-''<<DateTime(2015-06-02T12:39:12-0700)>>''-~ * In [[Homework+|solutions to homework 6]], there may be some helpful general thing to read, in addition to finding solutions to problems. This is regarding the general notion of an angular profile diagram. Please read pages 11-12 of the solutions to homework 6 for (hopefully helpful) discussion on this.—~-''<<DateTime(2015-05-21T14:50:01-0700)>>''-~ * Please note a small but important [[Homework+#Homework|correction to homework 6]].—~-''<<DateTime(2015-05-18T15:57:06-0700)>>''-~ * The midterm exam and its solutions are [[Homework+|posted here]].—~-''<<DateTime(2015-05-12T13:50:57-0700)>>''-~ |

What is this course about?
Classical electrodynamics is all about the light. And electrons and other charged particles... In this course, we will start with Maxwell's equations—something of a monument in the history of physics—and study some conclusions that we can draw from them. By doing so, we will learn about the light, or the electronmagnetic field, and its interaction with charged particles within the realm of “classical” physics. We will learn conservation principles, waves, radiation, and end with the special relativistic view of light.
