Classical Which classic book to follow for Advanced EM?

AI Thread Summary
The discussion emphasizes the need for a comprehensive classic book that thoroughly covers essential topics in electromagnetic theory and antenna design. Key areas of focus include ohmic losses at high frequencies, potentials and Green's functions, and the image theorem. The conversation also highlights the importance of understanding fields radiated by sources in the far field region, as well as equivalence and reciprocity theorems. Antenna theory, particularly in transmission and reception, is another critical aspect mentioned. Additionally, the Green's function of the infinite line source and a quasi-analytic analysis of transmission lines at high frequencies are noted as significant applications. While Balanis is recognized for addressing many of these topics, the discussion suggests that there are still gaps that need to be filled in a single authoritative resource.

The book should have the following content. I want to refer a classic book which explains every detail.

1) Ohmic losses at high frequencies
2) Potentials and Green's functions
3) Image theorem
4) Fields radiated by sources in the far field region
5) Equivalence and reciprocity theorems
6) Antennas in transmission and reception
7) Green's function of the infinite line source
3) Application case: quasi-analytic analysis of transmission lines at high frequencies

Balanis covers most is not all of those topics

Thread '"WHAT IS A QUANTUM FIELD THEORY?" A First Introduction for Mathematicians'

The book is fascinating. If your education includes a typical math degree curriculum, with Lebesgue integration, functional analysis, etc, it teaches QFT with only a passing acquaintance of ordinary QM you would get at HS. However, I would read Lenny Susskind's book on QM first. Purchased a copy straight away, but it will not arrive until the end of December; however, Scribd has a PDF I am now studying. The first part introduces distribution theory (and other related concepts), which...

Thread 'Books with a more theoretical approach to turbulence and DNS'

I've gone through the Standard turbulence textbooks such as Pope's Turbulent Flows and Wilcox' Turbulent modelling for CFD which mostly Covers RANS and the closure models. I want to jump more into DNS but most of the work i've been able to come across is too "practical" and not much explanation of the theory behind it. I wonder if there is a book that takes a theoretical approach to Turbulence starting from the full Navier Stokes Equations and developing from there, instead of jumping from...
