Abstract

1.Here is a well known theorem. Consider the homogeneous Maxwell equations(where E and H are functions of x, y, z, and t, and ).Use the coordinate substitutionsand the following substitutions for the field variablesThen, if terms depending on second and higher powers of (v/c) are dropped, the resulting equations have the same form as the original homogeneous Maxwell equations, i.e.
