Defining

Since ( A ) 0 , for any vector A ,


using (9) we define a magnetic vector potential A , such that A = H
(3), (10)

E + j 0 H = 0 , E + j 0 ( A ) = 0 , (E + j 0 A ) = 0

(11)

Since ( ) 0 , for any scalar field ,


using (11) we define a scalar field , such that = E j 0 A
(8), (10), (12)

(12)

( A ) = J + j 0E = J j 0 ( + j 0 A ) ,

( A ) 2 0 0 A = J j 0

(13)

Now, using the vector identity ( A ) ( A ) 2 A ,


(13)

( A ) 2 A 2 0 0 A = J j 0

Defining c =

0 0

and k =

, (14) ( A ) 2 A k 2 A = J j 0

(15)

We remove two terms from (15) by setting j 0 = A (the Lorenz gauge),

(16)

so that 2 A + k 2 A = J (the inhomogeneous vector Helmholtz equation).

(17)

The solution of the Helmholtz equation is

where g (r, r) =

j 0 ( E j 0 A ) = ( A ) ,

E(r ) = j
