This book presents a local-ether wave equation for electromagnetic and matter waves. From this wave equation, a time evolution equation is derived, which represents modifications of Schr‥odinger's equation. From this modified equation, an electromagnetic force law is derived, which represents modifications of the Lorentz force law. From the modified force law, relationships between electric and magnetic fields are derived, which represent modifications of Maxwell's equations.
