Abstract

The paper focuses on applying the octonions to explore the electromagnetic and gravitational equations in the presence of some material media, exploring the frequencies of astrophysical jets. Maxwell was the first to use the algebra of quaternions to describe the electromagnetic equations. This method encourages scholars in adopting the quaternions and octonions to study the physical properties of electromagnetic and gravitational fields, including the field strength, field source, linear momentum, and angular momentum and so forth. In the paper, the field strength and angular momentum in the vacuum can be combined together to become one new physical quantity, that is, the composite field strength within the material media. Substituting the latter for the field strength in the vacuum will deduce the field equations within material media, including the electromagnetic and gravitational equations in the presence of some material media. In terms of the electromagnetic fields, the electromagnetic equations in the presence of some electromagnetic media are able to explore a few new physical properties of electromagnetic media. Especially, in case the magnetic flux density and magnetization intensity both fluctuate at a single-frequency, their frequencies must be identical to each other within electromagnetic media. In some extreme cases, the electromagnetic equations within electromagnetic media will be degenerated into the Maxwell's equations in the vacuum. The above reveals that the electromagnetic equations within electromagnetic media are capable of extending the scope of application of electromagnetic theory. For the gravitational fields, there are some similar inferences and conclusions within gravitational media. Further they can be utilized to research the frequencies of astrophysical jets.
