Abstract

It is shown that the solution of the problem of scattering of long waves by a finite barrier in a rotating system may be obtained directly from the solution of the electromagnetic scattering problem for a finite strip. It is shown that the effect of rotation is to produce on both sides of the barrier, but away from the ends, a wave which is propagated without attenuation parallel to the barrier.
