  1. Electromagnetism

    Linked via "James Clerk Maxwell"

    Electromagnetism is the physical interaction that occurs between electrically charged particles. It is one of the four fundamental interactions of nature, alongside the strong nuclear force, the weak nuclear force, and gravity. This force manifests through electric fields, magnetic fields, and the radiation that links them, governing phenomena ranging from atomic structure to the propagation of light across the cosmos. Historically, electricity and magnetism were considered separate phenomena until the seminal work of [James Clerk Maxwell…

    Unification and Maxwell's Equations
    The pinnacle of classical electromagnetism is the unification of electric and magnetic phenomena into a single coherent theory achieved by Maxwell. Maxwell synthesized the disparate laws of Gauss, Ampère, and Faraday into a set of four fundamental equations, often expressed in differential form in vacuum:
    Gauss's Law for Electricity: $\nabla \cdot \mathbf{E} = \frac{\rho}{\varepsilon_0}$
