Are EM radiation and EM waves the same thing? I have seen this topics treated separately in many books. It is still not clear to me whether EM radiation and EM waves are synonymous. Is there any difference?
Another question: When one says that EM waves are solutions of Maxwell equations on vacuum does this mean that there is no charge at all in any point of space?
