摘要
A geometric approach to describing an electromagnetic field in a medium with sources as a single field object is proposed. The description is based on the coordinate-free covariant approach adopted in the present-day geometrized field theories. Maxwell's equations in a medium with sources are presented in terms of differential 2-forms for electric and magnetic fields in a four-dimensional space-time continuum. The general equations include special cases of propagation, scattering, and emission of an electromagnetic field in media with different properties.
