Spacetime algebra as a powerful tool for electromagnetism
by Justin Dressel, Konstantin Y. Bliokh, Franco Nori
Publisher: arXiv 2014
Number of pages: 118
Description:
We present a comprehensive introduction to spacetime algebra that emphasizes its practicality and power as a tool for the study of electromagnetism. We carefully develop this natural (Clifford) algebra of the Minkowski spacetime geometry, with a particular focus on its intrinsic (and often overlooked) complex structure.
