Energy-momentum tensor for the electromagnetic field in a dispersive medium as an application of Noether theorem (2002.12725v2)
Published 14 Feb 2020 in physics.class-ph
Abstract: On the basis of a non-local Lagrangian for Maxwell equations in a dispersive medium, the energy-momentum tensor of the field is derived. We obtain the Field equations through variational methods and an extension of Noether theorem for a non-local Lagrangian is obtained as well. The electromagnetic energy-momentum tensor obtained in the general context is then specialized to the case of a field with slowly varying amplitude on a rapidly oscillating carrier.
