1996ref. EG-652Oxford U.K.: Oxford University Press 1996. The purpose of this book is to explain how general electromagnetic fields can be represented by the superposition of plane waves traveling in diverse directions and to illustrate the way in which this plane wave spectrum representation can be put to good use in treating various characteristic problems belonging to the classical theories of radiation diffraction and propagation. The book offers a largely unified theory of a range of problems solutions to all of which are obtained in forms at least patently capable of yielding numerical results by straightforward means. The aim is to furnish the student of electromagnetic theory with a useful technical tool and a comparatively compact account of some interesting aspects of his discipline. The contents are presented in two parts. The first under the heading of Theory covers Preliminaries Plane wave representations; and Supplementary theory. The second with the heading Application deals with Diffraction by a plane screen; Propagation over a uniform plane surface; Propagation over a two-part plane surface; The field of a moving point charge; and Sources of anisotropic media. 188 pp. Illustrated. Second Edition. Hard Cover. New. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Oxford University Press hardcover
