ABSTRACT

The key work in the study of electromagnetics of moving media is Lorentz transformation law. Under these transformation laws, Maxwell’s equations have the same form in two reference frames moving with respect to each other with a uniform velocity v0. The velocity of light in free space remains the same value c = 3 × 108 m/s irrespective of the velocity of the observer measuring it. The postulate of special velocity that the physical laws are form-invariant among uniformly moving observers is consistent with the Lorentz transformations. A vast amount of literature is available out of which the author has selected [1-30] as a sample. In this chapter, we study the electromagnetic wave interactions with a moving media.
