13 · Electromagnetism: Radiation, Compton, Casimir Effect¶
pysic-rs — High-performance mathematical physics engine with Python bindings. Generic companion notebook: theory + validation of Rust API functions against independent Python/NumPy references.
kernel rhftlab · real data first, synthetic fallback — each code cell prints labeled outputs and produces at least one figure. Statistics: block-bootstrap CIs (Politis–Romano, ℓ≈21, B≥2000), ROC/AUC vs ≥4 baselines, non-overlapping CIs for regime claims.
1. Static Field and Green’s Function¶
Theorem / Model Used¶
Field of a point charge and static potential in 1/r.
Pivot Equation¶
\[E(r) = \frac{1}{4\pi\varepsilon_0}\frac{q}{r^2}, \quad G(r) = -\frac{1}{4\pi r}\]
Demonstration¶
Coulomb limit of the propagator; CODATA values injected via p.constants().
What This Cell Verifies¶
Verify field_strength_point_charge(q, r, ε0) and green_fn_static(r) reproduce these formulas exactly.

2. Radiation: Larmor and Electric Dipole¶
Theorem / Model Used¶
Radiation losses: Larmor (2/3 q²a²/(4πε₀c³)) and dipole (μ₀ω⁴p²/(12πc)).
Pivot Equation¶
\[P_{Larmor} = \frac{q^2 a^2}{6\pi\varepsilon_0 c^3}, \quad P_{dip} = \frac{\mu_0 \omega^4 p_0^2}{12\pi c}\]
Demonstration¶
Orders of magnitude: for p₀=1e-9 C·m and ω=1e9 rad/s, P_dip ≈ 111 W (textbook), but binding returns ~1.24e-15 W.
What This Cell Verifies¶
Verify larmor_formula is exact and dipole_radiation has factor 1/c² discrepancy (CONSTAT).
