Special hypergeometric functions

Coulomb wave function

In mathematics, a Coulomb wave function is a solution of the Coulomb wave equation, named after Charles-Augustin de Coulomb. They are used to describe the behavior of charged particles in a Coulomb potential and can be written in terms of confluent hypergeometric functions or Whittaker functions of imaginary argument. (Wikipedia).

In this lesson we study the basic ideas behind gauge transformation in classical electromagnetic theory. We convert Maxwell's equations into their potential-based form and then discuss why we can "choose a gauge" to simplify the resulting equations. We introduce the elementary ontology use
