The Riemann–Silberstein vector is a mathematical construct used in the context of electromagnetic theory. It provides a unified way to represent electric and magnetic fields. Named after Bernhard Riemann and Hans Silberstein, the vector is particularly useful in theoretical physics, especially in the study of electromagnetic waves and their propagation.
