Abstract:
The eikonal method for an electromagnetic wave propagating according to the laws of non-linear electrodynamics in vacuum in external electromagnetic and gravitational fields is developed. A mathematical model of the propagation of electromagnetic signals in the parameterized post-Maxwellian electrodynamics in vacuum is constructed. As an example of using the proposed method, the angles of the nonlinear electrodynamical and gravitational curvature of the normal wave rays propagating in the field of a charged collapsar are calculated.
Key words:mathematical modeling in nonlinear electrodynamics in vacuum, propagation of electro-magnetic waves.
