Hey guys,
Can you please refer some good books to refer to in studying relativistic Electrodynamics (introductory parts),
covering the Maxwell's equations in tensor form the L-W potentials and other aspects.
FYI am just a beginner in relativistic Electrodynamics.
Thanks for the help.
 
Physics news on Phys.org
how about Introduction to Electrodynamics by David J. Griffiths?

well, Sheldon Cooper has to start off somewhere. :rolleyes:
 
How about JD Jackson Classical Electrodynamics , a standard work for many of us. And don't get wrong-footed by the term classical :smile:
 
Landau&Lifshitz vol. II is my favorite, because it's straight to the point. Maybe it's leaving out a bit too much of the steps in the calculations for the beginner. Then the book by Schwartz is perhaps better suited.
