However, it isoften simpler to deal with scalar rather than vector functions of
position, and then to derive the vector quantities at the end if necessary (see
below). 1.5 Another Equation of Electrostatics and the Scalar Potential The single

6.4 Vector and Scalar Potentials Maxwell's equations consist of a set of coupled
first-order partial differential equations relating the various components of electric
and magnetic fields. They can be solved as they stand in simple situations.

In Chapters 3 and 4 on electrostatics the spherical harmonic expansion of the
scalar potential was used extensively for problems possessing some symmetry
property with respect to an origin of coordinates. Not only was it useful in
handling ...
