In two volumes, this book presents a detailed, systematic treatment
of electromagnetics with application to the propagation of
transient electromagnetic fields (including ultrawideband signals
and ultrashort pulses) in dispersive attenuative media. The
development in this expanded, updated, and reorganized new edition
is mathematically rigorous, progressing from classical theory to
the asymptotic description of pulsed wave fields in Debye and
Lorentz model dielectrics, Drude model conductors, and composite
model semiconductors. It will be of use to researchers as a
resource on electromagnetic radiation and wave propagation theory
with applications to ground and foliage penetrating radar, medical
imaging, communications, and safety issues associated with
ultrawideband pulsed fields. With meaningful exercises, and an
authoritative selection of topics, it can also be used as a
textbook to prepare graduate students for research. Volume 2
presents a detailed asymptotic description of plane wave pulse
propagation in dielectric, conducting, and semiconducting materials
as described by the classical Lorentz model of dielectric
resonance, the Rocard-Powles-Debye model of orientational
polarization, and the Drude model of metals. The rigorous
description of the signal velocity of a pulse in a dispersive
material is presented in connection with the question of
superluminal pulse propagation. The second edition contains new
material on the effects of spatial dispersion on precursor
formation, and pulse transmission into a dispersive half space and
into multilayered media. Volume 1 covers spectral representations
in temporally dispersive media.
