Abstract
A new type of expansion of is developed. Here i is a vector function of the spherical coordinates denoted by 1 and is the distance between two points denoted by 1 and 2. This expansion is used in the solution of Maxwell's equations and a simple general expression is found for the energy radiated from a known current distribution. A brief application to Dirac's theory of radiation is given. An expansion for is developed which can be used to find the vector potential due to a steady current distribution.
