The Poynting effect refers to the phenomenon where electromagnetic radiation causes forces to act on charged particles, leading to effects such as the motion of those particles or changes in their energy states. This effect is particularly connected to the flow of electromagnetic energy as described by the Poynting vector, which represents the directional energy flux (the amount of energy passing through a unit area per unit time) of an electromagnetic field.
