VI.—Neumann-Series Solutions of the Ellipsoidal Wave Equation*

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  14 February 2012

Synopsis

The ellipsoidal wave equation is the name given to the ordinary differential equation which arises when the wave equation (Helmholtz equation) is separated in ellipsoidal co-ordinates. In this paper, solutions of the equation are expressed as Neumann series (series of Bessel functions of increasing order).
