摘要:
The retarded interaction of two dipole oscillators is discussed using classical electromagnetic theory. We show how the oscillators causally exchange excitation, and how the back‐and‐forth signalling between the oscillators results in the familiar first‐order dispersion or dipole–dipole interaction. These results are directly analogous to recently reported work on the quantum‐mechanical radiative interaction of two atoms ’’sharing’’ a single excitation.
