Title | Letter from Oliver [Joseph] Lodge, Mariemont, Edgbaston, to [Joseph] Larmor |
Creator | Lodge; Sir Oliver Joseph (1851-1940); British physicist |
Recipient | Larmor; Sir Joseph (1857-1942); Irish theoretical physicist |
Date | 8 May 1915 |
Description | He has never been sure of [John Henry] Poynting's theorem is part of [James Clerk] Maxwell's theorem or not. It seems deducible from Maxwell's equations, but beyond what he taught. He asks what Larmor thinks of the matter: he knows that Poynting gave puctorial represntations of the transmission of energy in varieties of electric circuits, but he cannot believe that the theorem itself is more than anything already in Maxwell. |
