Localized Electromagnetic Fields in Complex Media and Free Space
Abstract
The presented exact solutions of homogeneous Maxwell's equations in complex media and free space describe fields having a rather involved curl structure and a very small-about several wave lengths of composing plane waves-and clearly defined core region with maximum intensity of field oscillations. In a given Lorentz frame L, a set of the obtalned exact time-harmonic solutions of the free-space homogeneous Maxwell equations consists of three subsets-termed "storms", "whirls", and "tornadoes" for the sake of brevity-for which time average energy flux is identically zero at all points, azimuthal, and spiral, respectively. In any other Lorentz frame L', they will be observed as a kind of electromagnetic missiles moving without dispersing at speed V <C. The solutions which describe finite-energy evolving electromagnetic storms, whirls, tornadoes are also presented.
