Lecture 6 Basics of Magnetostatics Lecture 6 Basics of Magnetostatics Today’s topics 1. New topic – magnetostatics 2. Present a parallel development as we did for electrostatics 3. Derive basic relations from a fundamental force law 4. Derive the analogs of E and G 5. Derive the analog of Gauss’ theorem 6. Derive the integral formulation of magnetostatics 7. Derive the differential form of magnetostatics 8. A few simple problems General comments 1. What is magnetostatics? The study of DC magnetic fields that arise from the motion of charged particles. 2. Since charged particles are present, does this mean we also must have an electric field? No!! Electrons can flow through ions in such a way that current flows but there is still no net charge, and hence no electric field. This is the situation in magnetostatics 3. Magnetostatics is more complicated than electrostatics. 4. Single magnetic charges do not exist in nature. The simplest basic element in magnetostatics is the magnetic dipole, which is equivalent to two, closely paired equal and opposite charges in electrostatics. In magnetostatics the dipole forms from a small circular loop of current. 5. Magnetic geometries are also more complicated than in electrostatics. The vector nature of the magnetic field is less intuitive. 1 The basic force of magnetostatics 1. Recall electrostatics. qq rr = 12 1 2 F12 3 4QF0 rr12 2. In magnetostatics there is an equivalent empirical law which we take as a postulate qq vv×× ¯( rr ) = 12N 0 1212¢± F12 3 4Q rr12 3. The force is proportional to 1/r 2 . = 4. The force is perpendicular to v1 : Fv12¸ 1 0 . 5. The force depends on the particle velocities vv12, =×7 Henry s meter 6. The constant of proportionality is equal to NQ0 410 '/ . The magnetic field 1. We define the magnetic field in terms of the force as follows 2 qq rr = 12 1 2 q Electrostatics FE123 w 1 4QF0 rr11 q rr = 212 E 3 4QF0 rr11 qq vv×× ¯() rr = N012 1212¢±q × Magnetostatics Fv123 w 1 1 B 4Q rr12 q vrr×() = N02 212 B 3 4Q r1 r2 2. Let’s extend the definition to include many charges q jjrr Electrostatics Er()= 3 j 4QF0 rr j × N q j vrrjj() Magnetostatics Br()= 0 3 j 4Q rr j 3.

Now, recall that rr a = 11=+ 3 a rr a rraa rr 5. This allows us to introduce the vector potential A 3 1 rr a Electrostatics Er()= d ra ¨ S 3 4QF0 rr a 11 = ¨ S dra 4QF0 rr a 11 = ¨ S dra 4QF0 rr a = G 11 GS= ¨ dra 4QF0 rr a Jr()aa× ( r r ) ()= N0 d Magnetostatics Br3 ra 4Q ¨ rr a N 1 = 0 J()rraa× d 4Q ¨ rr a N Jr()a = 0 × dra 4Q ¨ rr a N Jr()a = × 0 dra 4Q ¨ rr a = ×A N Jr()a Ar= 0 d a 4Q ¨ rr a 6. A is the vector potential and the integral expression for A is known as the Biot- Savart law. 7. A basic property of magnetostatics Electrostatics EE= G l ×=0 Magnetostatics BA= × l¸ B= 0 A new relation – conservation of charge 1. A basic physical property is that charge is conserved. It cannot be created or destroyed. 2. This implies a relation between S and J . 3. Let’s derive this relation for a simple 1-D case 4 4. Statement of charge conservation Rate of increase of charge = flow in of charge flow out of charge (1) = (2) (3) 5. The separate terms are as follows ssS (1) = ()S%%%xyz= %%% xyz sstt =×vyz (2) flux of charge area = S %% xx% /2 =×vyz (3) flux of charge area = S %% xx+% /2 6. Recall that SvJ= = current density . The conservation law becomes xyzsS = yz v v %%% %%()SSxx xx+ st % /2% /2 = yzJ() J %%xxxx% /2 xx+% /2 ¬Jx Jx yzJx() s%xx Jx() s% x% % xx ­ ® ssxx22­ sJx = %xyz % % sx 7. Therefore, in 1-D ssS J x +=0 sstx 8. In 3-D 5 J ssS JJxzs y s +++=0 sstx s y s z sS + ¸J = 0 st 9. Note, in electrostatics conservation of charge implies ssS / t = 0 . This is a trivial result since we are looking at static situations with no time variation 10. However, in magnetostatics conservation of charge implies that ¸J = 0. The current is divergence free for static problems. 11. This implies something about ¸A as follows N J(ra) Ar= 0 d a 4Q ¨ rr a N Jr()a ¸Ar= 0 ¸ d a 4Q ¨ rr a N ¯Jr()a 1 = 0 ¡°aaaa ¸ + ¸Jr()d r 4 ¨ ¡°rraa rr Q ¢±¡° N Jr()a = ¸0 aadr 4Q ¨ rr a N nJaa¸ ()S = 0 dSa 4Q ¨ rr a ==0 for a localized current distribution: J()SSaa0 as ld ¸A = 0 The analog of Poisson’s equation 1.

This is the equivalent to Poisson’s equation. 4. Also, we find that ×=BA×()× = ¸()AA 2 = 2A ×= BJN0 5. This is Ampere’s law for magnetostatics. 6.

Find the field due to the current flowing in a loop of wire 2. This problem is more complicated than you would think. Proceed as follows. 3. Since there are no conductors and the current is localized it makes sense to start with the Biot-Savart law N J()ra Ar= 0 d a 4Q ¨ rr a 4. Note that the current density is given by 10 ( ) = IR( a) ( Z) J reaaaEE G ¨¨Jn¸ dSaaaaa= IEE()() R a Z dR dZ= I 5. One tricky problem is that eeGa v G . As we integrate around the loop the direction of eGa is constantly changing while at the fixed observation point eG does not change. 6. This difficulty is avoided by expressing the unit vectors in rectangular coordinates which always stay fixed. Thus, = + eeG sinGGxy cos e = + eeGa sinGGaaxy cos e 7. The Biot-Savart law becomes Ae=+AAxx yy e J N aae = 0 GGdra 4Q ¨ rr a J ()+ N a sinGGaaeexy cos = 0 G dra 4Q ¨ rr a 8.

  • Review of Electrostatics and Magenetostatics
    Review of electrostatics and magenetostatics January 12, 2016 1 Electrostatics 1.1 Coulomb’s law and the electric field Starting from Coulomb’s law for the force produced by a charge Q at the origin on a charge q at x, qQ F (x) = 2 x^ 4π0 jxj where x^ is a unit vector pointing from Q toward q. We may generalize this to let the source charge Q be at an arbitrary postion x0 by writing the distance between the charges as jx − x0j and the unit vector from Qto q as x − x0 jx − x0j Then Coulomb’s law becomes qQ x − x0 x − x0 F (x) = 2 0 4π0 jx − xij jx − x j Define the electric field as the force per unit charge at any given position, F (x) E (x) ≡ q Q x − x0 = 3 4π0 jx − x0j We think of the electric field as existing at each point in space, so that any charge q placed at x experiences a force qE (x). Since Coulomb’s law is linear in the charges, the electric field for multiple charges is just the sum of the fields from each, n X qi x − xi E (x) = 4π 3 i=1 0 jx − xij Knowing the electric field is equivalent to knowing Coulomb’s law. To formulate the equivalent of Coulomb’s law for a continuous distribution of charge, we introduce the charge density, ρ (x). We can define this as the total charge per unit volume for a volume centered at the position x, in the limit as the volume becomes “small”.

  • Magnetic Boundary Conditions 1/6
    11/28/2004 Magnetic Boundary Conditions 1/6 Magnetic Boundary Conditions Consider the interface between two different materials with dissimilar permeabilities: HB11(r,) (r) µ1 HB22(r,) (r) µ2 Say that a magnetic field and a magnetic flux density is present in both regions. Q: How are the fields in dielectric region 1 (i.e., HB11()rr, ()) related to the fields in region 2 (i.e., HB22()rr, ())? A: They must satisfy the magnetic boundary conditions ! Jim Stiles The Univ. of Kansas Dept. of EECS 11/28/2004 Magnetic Boundary Conditions 2/6 First, let’s write the fields at the interface in terms of their normal (e.g.,Hn ()r ) and tangential (e.g.,Ht (r ) ) vector components: H r = H r + H r H1n ()r 1 ( ) 1t ( ) 1n () ˆan µ 1 H1t (r ) H2t (r ) H2n ()r H2 (r ) = H2t (r ) + H2n ()r µ 2 Our first boundary condition states that the tangential component of the magnetic field is continuous across a boundary. In other words: HH12tb(rr) = tb( ) where rb denotes to any point along the interface (e.g., material boundary). Jim Stiles The Univ. of Kansas Dept. of EECS 11/28/2004 Magnetic Boundary Conditions 3/6 The tangential component of the magnetic field on one side of the material boundary is equal to the tangential component on the other side ! We can likewise consider the magnetic flux densities on the material interface in terms of their normal and tangential components: BHrr= µ B1n ()r 111( ) ( ) ˆan µ 1 B1t (r ) B2t (r ) B2n ()r BH222(rr) = µ ( ) µ2 The second magnetic boundary condition states that the normal vector component of the magnetic flux density is continuous across the material boundary.

  • Magnetostatics: Part 1 We Present Magnetostatics in Comparison with Electrostatics
    Magnetostatics: Part 1 We present magnetostatics in comparison with electrostatics. Sources of the fields: Electric field E: Coulomb’s law Magnetic field B: Biot-Savart law Forces exerted by the fields: Electric: F = qE Mind the notations, both Magnetic: F = qvB printed and hand‐written Does the magnetic force do any work to the charge? F B, F v Positive charge moving at v B Negative charge moving at v B Steady state: E = vB By measuring the polarity of the induced voltage, we can determine the sign of the moving charge. If the moving charge carriers is in a perfect conductor, then we can have an electric field inside the perfect conductor. Does this contradict what we have learned in electrostatics? Notice that the direction of the magnetic force is the same for both positive and negative charge carriers. Magnetic force on a current carrying wire The magnetic force is in the same direction regardless of the charge carrier sign. If the charge carrier is negative Carrier density Charge of each carrier For a small piece of the wire dl scalar Notice that v // dl A current-carrying wire in an external magnetic field feels the force exerted by the field. If the wire is not fixed, it will be moved by the magnetic force. Some work must be done. Does this contradict what we just said? For a wire from point A to point B, For a wire loop, If B is a constant all along the loop, because Let’s look at a rectangular wire loop in a uniform magnetic field B.

  • We Continue to Compare the Electrostatic and Magnetostatic Fields. the Electrostatic Field Is Conservative
    We continue to compare the electrostatic and magnetostatic fields. The electrostatic field is conservative: This allows us to define the potential V: dl because a b is independent of the path. If a vector field has no curl (i.e., is conservative), it must be something's gradient. Gravity is conservative. Therefore you do see water flowing in such a loop without a pump in the physical world. For the magnetic field, If a vector field has no divergence (i.e., is solenoidal), it must be something's curl. In other words, the curl of a vector field has zero divergence. Let’s use another physical context to help you understand this math: Ampère’s law J ds 0 Kirchhoff's current law (KCL) S Since , we can define a vector field A such that Notice that for a given B, A is not unique. For example, if then , because Similarly, for the electrostatic field, the scalar potential V is not unique: If then You have the freedom to choose the reference (Ampère’s law) Going through the math, you will get Here is what means: Just notation. Notice that is a vector. Still remember what means for a scalar field? From a previous lecture: Recall that the choice for A is not unique. It turns out that we can always choose A such that (Ampère’s law) The choice for A is not unique. We choose A such that Here is what means: Notice that is a vector. Thus this is actually three equations: Recall the definition of for a scalar field from a previous lecture: Poisson’s equation for the magnetic field is actually three equations: Compare Poisson’s equation for the magnetic field with that for the electrostatic field: Given J, you can solve A, from which you get B by Given , you can solve V, from which you get E by Exams (Test 2 & Final) problems will not involve the vector potential.

We explore a multilayered cylindrical cloak whose permeability profile is tailored to nullify the magnetic-flux perturbation of the system, neutralizing its effect on AB measurements, and simultaneously optimally suppress the overall scattering. In this way, our improved magnetostatic cloak combines substantial mitigation of the magnetostatic scattering response with zero detectability by AB experiments.

An alternative experimental demonstration [12] Making an electromagnetic object of arbitrary shape and was reported in the quasistatic regime, and a magnetostatic texture invisible to certain portions of the frequency spec- carpet cloak [13] to hide objects over a superconducting plane trum is one of the most intriguing possibilities offered by is based again on transformation optics.
