Classical field theory predicts how physical fields interact with matter, and is a logical precursor to quantum field theory. This introduction focuses purely on modern classical field theory, helping graduates and researchers ...

Classical field theory is about fields and how they behave in space-time. Quantum field theory, in practice, usually seems to be about particles and how they scatter. Nevertheless, classical fields must emerge from quantum ...

In the wake of efforts made Nobre and Rego-Monteiro in EPL, 97 (2012) 41001 and J. Math. Phys., 54 (2913) 103302, we extend them here by developing the conventional Lagrangian treatment of a classical field theory (FT) ...

Considered one of the founding fathers of integral geometry, Luis Santaló has contributed to various areas of mathematics. His work has applications in number theory, in the theory of differential equations, in stochastic ...

In this work we study the Podolsky electrodynamics in the presence of conducting surfaces. We calculate the classical interaction between one perfect conducting plate and one point charge. We also consider the interaction ...
