Classical Finding the Right Optics Book: Faraday Rotator

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on finding comprehensive books that cover the Faraday rotator and the Faraday effect in optics. The only mentioned textbook is Melvin Schwartz's "Principles of Electrodynamics," which provides some information on the topic. However, the participant notes a lack of book references, as most available information is found in articles rather than textbooks. The conversation highlights the challenge of locating in-depth resources specifically focused on the Faraday effect within the context of optics.

Which book (on optics) can I find talking about Faraday rotator?
 
Physics news on Phys.org
The only textbook I have which covers the Faraday effect at all is Melvin Schwartz's Principles of Electrodynamics. Most references I can find on the Faraday effect and Faraday rotators are articles, not books.
 

Thread 'Hassani's books on Mathematical Physics/Methods'

By looking around, it seems like Dr. Hassani's books are great for studying "mathematical methods for the physicist/engineer." One is for the beginner physicist [Mathematical Methods: For Students of Physics and Related Fields] and the other is [Mathematical Physics: A Modern Introduction to Its Foundations] for the advanced undergraduate / grad student. I'm a sophomore undergrad and I have taken up the standard calculus sequence (~3sems) and ODEs. I want to self study ahead in mathematics...
