The Enigmatic Photon - Volume 1: The Field B3 (FUNDAMENTAL THEORIES OF PHYSICS Volume 64)

This book is the first of two volumes devoted to the photon. Volume 1 presents the first systematic development of the fundamental magnetizing field of electromagnetic radiation: the field B3. The book has 12 chapters which collectively describe the properties of B3 in a vacuum and in the interaction of light with matter. Volume 2 deals with the development of non-Abelian, or O(3), electrodynamics in which B3 is incorporated systematically. For researchers and graduate students interested in the theory of electromagnetic radiation.
