Ampère-Maxwell’s law describes how magnetic fields are generated by electric currents and changing electric fields.

Differential form

where
magnetic field (or magnetic flux density), measured in tesla
position vector in three-dimensional space, typically expressed as and measured in meters
time, measured in seconds
curl operator which measures the rotation of a field in space, and which applied to is:



measured in amperes per meter
permeability of free space, measured in henry per meter
current density vector field, measured in amperes per square meter
permittivity of free space, measured in farads per meter
electric field, measured in volts per meter

Integral form

where
closed loop (or contour) in three-dimensional space
line integral around the closed path measuring the total circulation of the electric field along the loop
differential line element that represents an infinitesimally small segment along the loop
surface whose boundary is the closed loop
surface integral which sums the contribution of the field over the entire surface
differential surface element representing an infinitesimally small patch of the surface
