Free-Space Green's Functions of the Reduced Wave Equation.

Abstract

The governing differential equations are solved by the method of separation of variables for the separate cases of Cartesian, cylindrical and spherical coordinate systems. The resulting integral/series expansions of the Green's functions for outgoing waves are then reduced to their standard and simple form. In addition to bringing together, in tabular form, a number of frequently used Green's functions this memorandum also provides an introduction to their derivation. (Author)
