Blackbody Radiation in Classical Physics: A Historical Perspective
Timothy H. Boyer
We point out that current textbooks of modern physics are a century out-of-date in their treatment of blackbody radiation within classical physics. Relativistic classical electrody…

Scaling, Scattering, and Blackbody Radiation in Classical Physics
Timothy H. Boyer
Here we discuss blackbody radiation within the context of classical theory. We note that nonrelativistic classical mechanics and relativistic classical electrodynamics have contras…

Interference Between Source-Free Radiation and Radiation from Sources: Particle-Like Behavior for Classical Radiation
Timothy H. Boyer
A simple junior-level electrodynamics problem is used to illustrate the interference between a source-free standing plane wave and a wave generated by a pulse in a current sheet. D…
