DESCRIPTION:Last year has been the sesquicentennial anniversary of the birt
 hday of the Maxwell Equations\, and this year is dedicated to light\, stil
 l related to these equations. This seminar presents the story of the equat
 ions\, and their accomplishment till our years. The presentation has been 
 designed for a cultured audience\, but does not require any familiarity wi
 th electromagnetic phenomena.\n\nIn the late seventeenth and eighteenth ce
 ntury\, mysterious electric and magnetic different phenomena were exciting
  curiosity of people\, and also interest of some scientists. Their investi
 gation\, essentially performed in France and UK\, was formalised by two la
 ws\, Biot & Savart and Faraday equations.\n\nAnd then James Clerk Maxwell 
 entered in the arena: a dark penumbra suddenly changed to brilliant light\
 , theoretical results from his new equations were experimentally confirmed
 \, and successive applications implemented.\n\nThis Seminar presents the r
 omance of Maxwell equations\, created and not derived from preliminary exp
 eriments\, and the successive steps of their usage for a number of applica
 tions that changed\, and are still changing our physical and social life. 
 At the end of the Seminar\, a just one minute additional comment is added:
  no detail is given here\, to hide a thrilling conclusion!\n\nCo-sponsored
