Classical ElectrodynamicsPart IIbyRobert G. BrownDuke University Physics DepartmentDurham, NC d like to dedicate these notes to the memory of Larry C. was my advisor at Duke and he generously loaned mehis (mostlyhandwritten or crudely typed) lecture notes when in the natural course of eventsI came to teach Electrodynamics for the first time. Most of thenotes have beencompletely rewritten, typeset with latex, changed to emphasize the things thatI think are important, but there are still important fragments that are moreor less pure Biedenharn, in particular the lovely exposition of vector sphericalharmonics and Hansen solutions (which a student will very likely be unable tofind anywhere else).I d also like to acknowledge and thank my many colleagues at Duke andelsewhere who have contributed ideas, criticisms, or encouragement to me overthe years, in particular Mikael Ciftan (my other advisor for my andbeyond), Richard Palmer and Ronen NoticeCopyright Robert G.
This set of “lecture notes” is designed to support my personal teaching ac-tivities at Duke University, in particular teaching its Physics 318/319 series (graduate level Classical Electrodynamics) using J. D. Jackson’s Classical Elec-trodynamics as a primary text. However, the notes may be useful to students
