Natural oscillations of dielectric sphere on a metal wedge

Abstract

The effect of a perfectly conducting metal wedge on the spectrum of the natural oscillations of the dielectric sphere. We derived and solved the characteristic equation. It is shown that the formation of a conducting half-plane in the volume of dielectric sphere leads to a "push" from the cavity field main types of electric and magnetic fluctuations. The calculation results are confirmed by the data of the experiments smiling.
