Molecular Electromagnetism

By Alan Hinchliffe

Molecular Electromagnetism aims to provide a fundamental understanding of the electromagnetic properties of molecules and molecular systems. Electric, magnetic, dielectric optical and spectroscopic properties are all discussed as are selected basic principles of spectroscopy. The book begins with a treatment of basic electromagnetism, working up to Maxwell's equations and electromagnetic radiation. A classical account of electromagnetic properties is then given. Finally the quantum- mechanical origins of electromagnetic properties are treated, building on a detailed treatment of the change of quantum state under external perturbations such as electromagnetic fields.
