Abstract :
The usual understanding of the relationship between electrophysics and electrical engineering is that physicists discover facts and laws, develop methods of measurement, determine various constants, propose and work out in detail mathematical theories and hypotheses, etc., while electrical engineers later apply some of these valuable facts and theories to the design, construction, and operation of various practical devices and aggregates. While such a relationship exists between the two professions in many cases, yet there are numerous other cases in which certain practical requirements have to be met empirically, ahead of a careful study by physicsts, or where physicists and engineers have been working in parallel on different phases of the same problem.
