Maxwell's equations are
∇⋅E=ϵ0ρ,∇×E=−∂t∂B∇⋅B=0,∇×B=μ0J+ϵ0μ0∂t∂E
Find the equation relating ρ and J that must be satisfied for consistency, and give the interpretation of this equation.
Now consider the "magnetic limit" where ρ=0 and the term ϵ0μ0∂t∂E is neglected. Let A be a vector potential satisfying the gauge condition ∇⋅A=0, and assume the scalar potential vanishes. Find expressions for E and B in terms of A and show that Maxwell's equations are all satisfied provided A satisfies the appropriate Poisson equation.
