Physics Fundamentals

Electromagnetics

Pilar Candelas Valiente, M. Ángeles Hernández Fenollosa, Constanza Rubio Michavila, Marcos Giménez Valentín, and Joaquín Cerdá Boluda

In this course we investigate the causes and define the laws of electromagnetic interaction. This interaction is one of the most important interactions that characterise our daily lives, since many of the phenomena observed around us, including chemical and biological phenomena, are due to the electromagnetic interaction between atoms and molecules. This course focuses on analysing the origin of this interaction and describing the physical laws that rule it.
