Several wave scattering phenomena in optics are modeled by the method of fictitious
sources (MFS). Despite its interesting features, the effectiveness of the MFS and its …

In this letter, we present an investigation of the radiation Q-factors of two coupled thin dipole
antennas with sinusoidal current distribution. The approach is based on novel rigorous …

A very simple scattering problem is considered, together with its solution obtained via the
Method of Auxiliary Sources (MAS). We show that it is possible to concurrently have …

According to recent works, when one applies the method of auxiliary sources (MAS) to
scattering problems, it is possible for the MAS currents to be strongly oscillatory. For two …

The electrostatic charge distribution on a conducting cylindrical wire exactly satisfies an
integral equation. Many textbooks discuss an approximate form of this equation and solve it …

The Method of Auxiliary Sources (MAS) is a well-known method of computational
electromagnetics and physics. Previous studies of MAS solutions to exterior scattering …

We discuss certain fundamental properties of Hallén's and Pocklington's equations with the
finite-gap generator (FGG), which has long been used as a feed model for cylindrical …

Using analytical methods, previous studies have shown that it is possible for oscillations to
occur in the auxiliary surface current determined by applying the method of auxiliary sources …

A number of recent works have shown that moment-method solutions of Hallén's and
Pocklington's equations with the approximate kernel present undesirable and unphysical …

Previous papers have defined the concept of effective current for linear antennas as a
method of postprocessing the unphysical solutions obtained by applying discretization …
