LECTURES ON COSMOLOGY AND ACTION-AT-A-DISTANCE ELECTRODYNAMICS
Av Fred Hoyle, Jayant V Narlikar
Inbunden, 1996
797 kr
Lägg i varukorg
This book describes the subject of electrodynamics at classical as well as quantum level, developed as an interaction at a distance. Thus it has electric charges interacting with one another directly and not through the medium of a field. In general such an interaction travels forward and backward …
