Modern electrodynamics in different media is a wide branch of
electrodynamics which combines the exact theory of electromagnetic
fields in the presence of electric charges and currents with
statistical description of these fields in gases, plasmas, liquids
and solids; dielectrics, conductors and superconductors. It is
widely used in physics and in other natural sciences (such as
astrophysics and geophysics, biophysics, ecology and evolution of
terrestrial climate), and in various technological applications
(radio electronics, technology of artificial materials, laser-based
technological processes, propagation of bunches of charges
particles, linear and nonlinear electromagnetic waves, etc.).
Electrodynamics of matter is based on the exact fundamental
(microscopic) electrodynamics but is supplemented with specific
descriptions of electromagnetic fields in various media using the
methods of statistical physics, quantum mechanics, physics of
condensed matter (including theory of superconductivity), physical
kinetics and plasma physics. This book presents in one unique
volume a systematic description of the main electrodynamic
phenomena in matter: - A large variety of theoretical approaches
used in describing various media - Numerous important
manifestations of electrodynamics in matter (magnetic materials,
superconductivity, magnetic hydrodynamics, holography, radiation in
crystals, solitons, etc.) - A description of the applications used
in different branches of physics and many other fields of natural
sciences - Describes the whole complexity of electrodynamics in
matter including material at different levels. - Oriented towards
3-4 year bachelors, masters, and PhD students, as well as lectures,
and engineers and scientists working in the field. - The reader
will need a basic knowledge of general physics, higher mathematics,
classical mechanics and microscopic (fundamental) electrodynamics
at the standard university level - All examples and problems are
described in detail in the text to help the reader learn how to
solve problems - Advanced problems are marked with one asterisk,
and the most advanced ones with two asterisks. Some problems are
recommended to be solved first, and are are marked by filled dots;
they are more general and important or contain results used in
other problems.
