Unit vectors for similar oblate spheroidal coordinates and vector transformation
نویسندگان
چکیده
The unit vectors transformation between the Cartesian and novel similar oblate spheroidal coordinates, vice versa, is derived. It facilitates of vector fields these two types orthogonal coordinates can advantageously simplify solutions problems exhibiting geometry. Several examples demonstrate use derived relations. Generalized sine cosine applicable in coordinate system are introduced as well.

Gaussian beam in oblate spheroidal coordinates
A new geometrical model for the fundamental mode of a Gaussian beam is presented in the oblate spheroidal coordinate system. The model is an interpretation of a Gaussian amplitude wave function, which is an exact solution of the scalar Helmholtz equation. The model uses the skew-line generator of a hyperboloid of one sheet as a raylike element on a contour of constant amplitude. The geometrical...
متن کاملSolution of the coupled Einstein-Maxwell equations in oblate spheroidal coordinates.
Using Ernst's theory of complex potentials, a solution of the coupled Einstein-Maxwell equations in oblate spheroidal coordinates is obtained for a source possessing mass, electric charge, and angular momentum. The density of the electromagnetic energy is evaluated. Explicit expressions are derived for the components of the Ricci tensor Rmunu, and of the electromagnetic energy momentum tensor E...
متن کاملDavis-Greenstein alignment of oblate spheroidal grains
We present extensive calculations on the efficiency of grain alignment by the Davis-Greenstein mechanism. We model the grains as oblate spheroids with arbitrary axis ratios. Our description of the grain dynamics includes (i) magnetic dissipation and the inverse process driven by thermal fluctuations in the grain magnetization; (ii) gas-grain collisions and thermal evaporation of molecules from ...
متن کاملGaussian Laser Beams via Oblate Spheroidal Waves
Gaussian beams provide the simplest mathematical description of the essential features of a focused optical beam, by ignoring higher-order effects induced by apertures elsewhere in the system. Wavefunctions ψ(x, t) = ψ(x)e−iωt for Gaussian laser beams [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 10, 11, 12] of angular frequency ω are typically deduced in the paraxial approximation, meaning that in the far zone the fu...
متن کاملOptical Properties of Spherical and Oblate Spheroidal Gold Shell Colloids
The surface plasmon modes of spherical and oblate spheroidal core-shell colloids composed of a 312 nm diameter silica core and a 20 nm thick Au shell are investigated. Large arrays of uniaxially aligned coreshell colloids with size aspect ratios ranging from 1.0 to 1.7 are fabricated using a novel ion irradiation technique. Angleand polarization-resolved extinction spectroscopy is performed on ...
