What (who) is retarded potential - definition
Retarded potential
TYPE OF POTENTIAL IN ELECTRODYNAMICS
Advanced potential; Retarded and advanced potential
In electrodynamics, the retarded potentials are the electromagnetic potentials for the electromagnetic field generated by time-varying electric current or charge distributions in the past. The fields propagate at the speed of light c, so the delay of the fields connecting cause and effect at earlier and later times is an important factor: the signal takes a finite time to propagate from a point in the charge or current distribution (the point of cause) to another point in space (where the effect is measured), see figure below.
Electric potential
LINE INTEGRAL OF THE ELECTRIC FIELD
Electrical potential; Electrostatic potential; Electric scalar potential; Electrical scalar potential; Electrical potential difference; Electric Scalar Potential; Coulomb potential; Coulomb Potential; Electric Potential; Electrical Potential; Potential electric; Scalar potential difference; Vector potential difference; Electric field potential
The electric potential (also called the electric field potential, potential drop, the electrostatic potential) is defined as the amount of work energy needed to move a unit of electric charge from a reference point to the specific point in an electric field. More precisely, it is the energy per unit charge for a test charge that is so small that the disturbance of the field under consideration is negligible.

CONCEPT IN VECTOR ANALYSIS AND PHYSICS
Scalar Potential; Scaler potential
In mathematical physics, scalar potential, simply stated, describes the situation where the difference in the potential energies of an object in two different positions depends only on the positions, not upon the path taken by the object in traveling from one position to the other. It is a scalar field in three-space: a directionless value (scalar) that depends only on its location.
