Re: NEC-LIST: Radiation

I do not intend to be an expert in this.

But, it is common in most of the fields and waves books I've seen to
deduce the wave equation required for radiation from Maxwell. In that
result is a term that has acceleration. The same as required by the
wave equation.

I'm not sure if you'll accept the analogy, but as specific as
Bremstraulung radiation is to a particle changing velocity, more
general radiation is to a wave changing velocity. A form of
conservation of energy I suppose. My *opinion* of course.
