Static Image Principle for the Sphere in Bi-Isotropic Space

Abstract

The classical inversion transformation in a sphere was originally introduced by Lord Kelvin to formulate the electrostatic image principle for the perfectly electrically conducting sphere. Here it is shown that the inversion principle can be used as the basis of an extended electrostatic image principle for a perfectly magnetically conducting sphere and for a sphere with an impedance boundary condition. Any of these spheres may even reside in the most general linear isotropic medium, namely in the bi-isotropic medium, as will be shown.
