We consider the problem of incidence of a plane waveupon an arbitrary cone Z (see Fig. 1). The wave propagates along the direction -w0. We have the boundary condition on the surface of the cone 07=,(~ is the differentiation in the direction of the external normal of E). We assume thatwhere u ~ is the wave scattered by the cone that satisfies the radiation conditions and the Maixner condition in a vicinity of the cone's vertex C. The wave Gdiff emerges as a result of the diffraction process. It has a spherical front centered at the cone vertex. There is a well known formula for Gdiff:where r is the distance between the point C and the point M(Xl, x2, xa) of observation, w is the unit vector with the same direction as the vector CM,
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
