Electromagnetic wave scattering by two parallel infinite dielectric cylinders. (English) Zbl 1288.78017

The paper is devoted to the scattering of an electromagnetic plane wave by two parallel infinite dielectric cylinders of equal diameter and dielectric constant. The scattered field is represented as an infinite series involving Bessel and Hankel functions, using superposition of the fields from the two single scatterers and successive approximation. Under certain conditions on the physical parameters, the author proves uniform convergence of the resulting infinite series.
