Oct 4, 2014 at 16:51 comment added The Photon I'm not clear on your 3rd paragraph. In engineering we use $\sigma$ for the conductivity of a material. Are you using it for charge density?

Oct 4, 2014 at 13:22 comment added Alfred Centauri This is elementary EM and the derivation is of this result is ubiquitous, e.g., hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/hbase/electric/elelin.html What specifically is not clear in the derivation of the electric field of the infinite line charge?
Oct 4, 2014 at 12:36 comment added Christopher Pinto w8 how is it to r^-1 and not r^-2 .. does this have something to do with potential field or something?
Oct 4, 2014 at 12:30 comment added Alfred Centauri Regarding your 2nd sentence, the electric field of a point charge is inverse square law but not for other collections or distributions of charge. For example, the electric field an arbitrarily long line of charge through the origin is proportional to $r^{-1}$ rather than $r^{-2}$.
