Written by a recognized expert in the field, Electrostatics of Conducting Cylinders and Spheres presents the theory in a simple and physical way, beginning with basic principles and moving onto the details of electrostatics of pairs of spheres and of pairs of cylinders. The difficult topic of a finite charged cylinder is also covered. The book presents exact solutions, in closed form where possible, with recent and new results included. Applications to engineering, physical, chemical, and biological problems are also presented.
Key topics include: Fundamentals of the polarizability tensor and capacitance coefficients of an assembly of conductors. Rigorous and thorough theoretical investigation of the electrostatics of spheres and cylinders. Uniform formalism used in the solution for a rich array of problems.
Theoretical and experimental physicists, chemists, and engineers will find this an invaluable reference. It is also suitable for advanced undergraduate and graduate students in electrodynamics.
