RESEARCH ON WAVES IN ANISOTROPIC MEDIA

Abstract

The radiation impedance of various sources is computed and it is shown that the average Poynting vector has the direction of the group velocity. The one dimensional problem of R-f confinement was investigated and solved completely by analytic means. Boltzmann's equation was solved by means of dyadic Green's functions to establish a conductivity tensor valid for elevated temperatures. Temperature and collision effects in a plasma were investigated and dispersion surfaces computed. Photo-emission from a tungsten point was obtained with light from a ruby laser.
