On the electromagnetic instantaneous response

Gustafsson, Mats LU orcid (2000) In Technical Report LUTEDX/(TEAT-7087)/1-20/(2000)
Abstract
The instantaneous response models the rapid part of the interaction between

electromagnetic fields and materials. From a physical point of view the instantaneous

response is non-observable and from a mathematical point of view

it constitutes the principal part of the Maxwell equations. In this paper, it

is shown that the instantaneous response is not uniquely determined from a

given set of values of the constitutive map. The given values only give an

upper bound on the size of the instantaneous response. A numerical example

illustrates the non-uniqueness of the instantaneous response.
