Everything about The Electromagnetic Tensor totally explained

The electromagnetic tensor or electromagnetic field tensor (sometimes called the field strength tensor, Faraday tensor or Maxwell bivector) is a mathematical object that describes the electromagnetic field of a physical system in Maxwell's theory of electromagnetism. The field tensor was first used after the 4-dimensional tensor formulation of special relativity introduced by Hermann Minkowski. The tensor allows some physical laws to be written in a very concise form.

Details

» Mathematical note: In this article, the abstract index notation will be used.

The electromagnetic tensor F_,  to incorporate the creation and annihilation of photons (and electrons).
   In quantum field theory, it's used for the template of the gauge field strength tensor. That is used in addition to the local interaction Lagrangian, nearly identical to its role in QED.
