Oct 13, 2018 at 1:03 | comment | added | Donkey Kong | Thats exactly what I thought! Afterall, this is how the LW field is solved for in the first place. But, is that only for the point $x_0$ where the charge is located? Kind of like the static case ($\nabla \cdot E =0$ except at $x_0$)? Im just kind of confused what to expect! | |
Oct 12, 2018 at 16:40 | comment | added | Lorenz Mayer | shouldn't it satisfy $\nabla \cdot E = \delta(x-x_0)$, with $x_0$ the location of the source? | |
