Monday 5-6 PM. Discussion section Mondays at 7:00 (Homework Due in Physics office by 4:30 pm on due date) This course brings the full machinery of Maxwell's equations to bear on time-dependent problems in electrodynamics, especially waves and wave propagation and radiation. Maxwell's equations obey the rules of special relativity, and we will develop a much more sophisticated understanding of relativity in this course.
