Maxwell's Equations

Maxwell's equations describe the behavior of electric and magnetic fields and their interactions with matter. They consist of four partial differential equations: \[ \begin{align*} \nabla \cdot \mathbf{E} &= \frac{\rho}{\epsilon_0}, \\ \nabla \cdot \mathbf{B} &= 0, \\ \nabla \times \mathbf{E} &= -\frac{\partial \mathbf{B}}{\partial t}, \\ \nabla \times \mathbf{B} &= \mu_0 \mathbf{J} + \mu_0 \epsilon_0 \frac{\partial \mathbf{E}}{\partial t}. \end{align*} \]
