For:   Fys  

  Area of Education:

Subject area:

  Advancement level (A-D): A

Aim:
The course aims to give an introduction to the field of electromagnetics necessary for further studies in physics.

Prerequisites: (valid for students admitted to programmes within which the course is offered)
Attended 40 p in Mathematics

Note: Admission requirements for non-programme students usually also include admission requirements for the programme and threshhold requirements for progression within the programme, or corresponding.

Supplementary courses:
NFYD70 Calssical Electrodynamics TFYY03 Antenna Theory

Organisation:
The content of the course is presented at lectures and problems will be solved which demands the use and the understanding of the theory. Several laborations are included in the course. These are introduced at special lectures. Physical seminars are also included (see NFYA56)

Course contents:
Electrostatics: Electric Field Intensity, Coulomb's law, Potential, Gauss's law, Poisson's and Laplace's Equations, Capacitance, Dielectrics, Electrics Dipole, Polarisation.
