You all time about Maxwell's hypothesis. But Maxwell wrote: "The general
type of a stress is not suitable as a representation of a magnetic force,
because a line of magnetic force has direction and intensity, but has no
third qufility indicating any difference between the sides of the line,
which would be analogous to that observed in the case of polarized
light[2]." From: http://en.wikisource.org/wiki/On_Phy...Lines_of_Force
Yeah, and Maxwell was talking about magnetic fields, not electromagnetic
fields, in that sentence.
To explain the light polarization Maxwell assumed that the current in the
wire create the magnetic whirl around the wire (The same for displacement
current in the space).
Gibberish.
Maxwell's waves are polarized. Now you know that the dipoles are "polarized"
(not waves).
S*
More gibberish.
