The classical theory of gauge fields is an important subject that has numerous applications in modern physics. Courses on classical Maxwell-Lorentz electrodynamics are necessarily included in the programs of all physics and engineering departments of universities. In this sense, the new book is addr

β¦ Synopsis
This volume is intended as a systematic introduction to gauge field theory for advanced undergraduate and graduate students in high energy physics. The discussion is restricted to the classical (non-quantum) theory in Minkowski spacetime. Particular attention has been given to conceptual aspects of field theory, accurate definitions of basic physical notions, and thorough analysis of exact solutions to the equations of motion for interacting systems. Two theories covered by the book in great detail are the Maxwell-Lorentz electrodynamics and Yang-Mills-Wong theory.
