An attempt is made to recast a masterpiece in the theory of electromagnetism by the great scientist H. Hertz into modern notations and to supply the derivations of several important equations in the work. By invoking the radiation condition in his formulation, an amendment has been made to clarify a criticism addressed to that theory. Also, upon removing the constraint placed on the current distribution in the original theory we have demonstrated a complete union of Hertz's theory of electromagnetism with Maxwell's theory. The distinct and independent features of Hertz's theory are emphasized. The importance of this theoretical work by Hertz and its significance appear not to have been fully recognized. ¿ American Geophysical Union 1994 |
