Gentlepeople-
Following the excellent presentation by Franklin today, I decided to
check out the quaternion formulation, if possible, because I had not
known before that Maxwell presented his analysis of electrodynamics in
that formulation. (Wikipedia has an excellent summary of quaternion
notation {apparently established by Hamilton].) During my quest, I found
the following relatively recent article
https://www.scirp.org/journal/paperinformation.aspx?paperid=102987
which discusses and elaborates on the formulation. In my opinion, the
article contains interesting speculations (e.g., a scalar
electromagnetic field which I don't know if Maxwell envisioned) together
with its analysis.
Good reading!
Dick
