Summary
The lecture derives spherical-wave solutions of Maxwell’s equations and connects them to the retarded potentials used in earlier discussions of light. It then shows how dipole radiation, field falloff, and the Lorentz transformation emerge from the electromagnetic equations, emphasizing the role of delay, causality, and moving charges.
