	Quantum electrodynamics - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		QED describes all phenomena involving electrically charged particles interacting by means of the electromagnetic force and has been called "the jewel of physics" for its extremely accurate predictions of quantities like the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon, and the Lamb shift of the energy levels of hydrogen.
		This area of research culminated in the formulation of quantum electrodynamics by Feynman, Dyson, Schwinger, and Tomonaga during the 1940s.
		Quantum electrodynamics is a quantum theory of electrons, positrons, and the electromagnetic field, and served as a role model for subsequent quantum field theories.

		Electrodynamics is the branch of physics which deals with rapidlychanging electric and magnetic fields.
		Many results in electrodynamics are an attempt to explain previously known optical laws, such as Snell's law, byusing appropriately simplified versions of Maxwell'sequations ; and to explain phenomena such as scattering and absorbance of light.
		During the late 19th century,physicists noted a contradiction between the accepted laws of electrodynamics and those of classical mechanics.

	Book Review of Modern Problems in Classical Electrodynamics
		Electrodynamics is one of the core required courses for any degree in physics.
		This prologue seems a bit redundant because the book itself covers time-independent electromagnetic fields and electromagnetic waves in Chapters 3 and 4.According to the preface, Brau’s arrangement of the text was influenced by that of Landau and Lifshitz, starting with a chapter on relativistic kinematics and another on relativistic mechanics and field theory.
		The main contribution of this book to the already huge list of books in electrodynamics is the inclusion of sections on nonlinear optics and lasers, topics that are rarely covered in a classical electrodynamics book.

		Electrodynamics is a comprehensive study of the field produced by (and interacting with) charged particles, which in practice means almost all matter.
		A well-taught electrodynamics course should be less about mathematical minutiae and more about how to think and present arguments.
		Avoiding unnecessary technical details and calculations, Electrodynamics will serve both as a useful supplemental text for graduate and advanced undergraduate students and as a helpful overview for physicists who specialize in other fields.

	Richard P. Feynman - Nobel Lecture
		There were several possible solutions of the difficulty of classical electrodynamics, any one of which might serve as a good starting point to the solution of the difficulties of quantum electrodynamics.
		Because of the need to do things differentially there had been, in the standard quantum electrodynamics, a complete split of the field into two parts, one of which is called the longitudinal part and the other mediated by the photons, or transverse waves.
		Thus, classical electrodynamics can be described by a field view, or an action at a distance view, etc. Originally, Maxwell filled space with idler wheels, and Faraday with fields lines, but somehow the Maxwell equations themselves are pristine and independent of the elaboration of words attempting a physical description.

		Quantum electrodynamics, commonly referred to as QED, is a quantum field theory of the electromagnetic force.
		Taking the example of the force between two electrons, the classical theory of electromagnetism would describe it as arising from the electric field produced by each electron at the position of the other.

	The effects of the Aharonov-Bohm type as tests of the relativistic interpretation of electrodynamics (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		Going back to the classical interpretation of the effects of the AB type, as a counter example, a phase of classical origin is that of the MP effect, where charged particles interact with a dipolar charge distribution and there are em forces, of zero average along the path, acting on the particle.
		The correct expression of the force must be determined by the internal consistency of electrodynamics and by experimental verification.
		In a nonrelativistic interpretation of electrodynamics, a current may be defined as due to charges moving in a closed circuit.

	On the Electrodynamics of Moving Bodies
		The observable phenomenon here depends only on the relative motion of the conductor and the magnet, whereas the customary view draws a sharp distinction between the two cases in which either the one or the other of these bodies is in motion.
		In the conductor, however, we find an electromotive force, to which in itself there is no corresponding energy, but which gives rise--assuming equality of relative motion in the two cases discussed--to electric currents of the same path and intensity as those produced by the electric forces in the former case.
		They suggest rather that, as has already been shown to the first order of small quantities, the same laws of electrodynamics and optics will be valid for all frames of reference for which the equations of mechanics hold good.
