Classical Field Theory
Classical Field Theory is a framework in physics that describes how physical fields, such as electromagnetic fields or gravitational fields, interact with matter. It focuses on the concept of fields as fundamental entities that exist throughout space and time, influencing the behavior of particles and objects.
In this theory, fields are represented mathematically by functions that vary over space and time. The equations governing these fields, such as Maxwell's equations for electromagnetism or Einstein's field equations for gravity, help predict how forces act on charged particles or how massive objects warp spacetime.
