Biot–Savart Law
Introduction The Biot–Savart Law is a fundamental principle in electromagnetism that describes the magnetic field generated by an electric current. Named after physicists Jean-Baptiste Biot and Félix Savart, the law provides a mathematical description of the magnetic field in terms of the current source that produces it. Statement of the Biot–Savart Law The Biot–Savart Law…

d’Alembert Operator
Introduction The d’Alembert operator, also known as the d’Alembertian or wave operator, is a second-order differential operator that is essential in the study of wave equations in classical field theory, electromagnetism, and quantum mechanics. The d’Alembert Operator Definition The d’Alembert operator is defined in the Minkowski spacetime, the setting for the special theory of relativity.…

Standard Model
Introduction The Standard Model of particle physics is a theoretical framework that describes the fundamental particles and forces that make up the universe, excluding gravity. It is a well-tested model that has had remarkable success in predicting and explaining a vast array of physical phenomena. Fundamental Particles The Standard Model includes two main types of…
