Abstract
In a domain Ω with boundary Γ, filled in by a dielectric material, in the presence of free electric charges distributed with density ρ(C m−3) in Ω and/or electric charges distributed with density σ(C m−2) along Γ, the electrostatic field is defined by field strength \(\overline{E} ({\text{V m}}^{ - 1} )\) as well as by flux density \(\overline{D} ({\text{C m}}^{ - 2} )\).
