%0 Journal Article %T On a quaternionic Maxwell equation for the time-dependent electromagnetic field in a chiral medium %A Sergei M. Grudsky %A Kira V. Khmelnytskaya %A Vladislav V. Kravchenko %J Mathematics %D 2003 %I arXiv %R 10.1088/0305-4470/37/16/013 %X Maxwell's equations for the time-dependent electromagnetic field in a homogeneous chiral medium are reduced to a single quaternionic equation. Its fundamental solution satisfying the causality principle is obtained which allows us to solve the time-dependent chiral Maxwell system with sources. %U http://arxiv.org/abs/math-ph/0309062v1
