Electromagnetic wave scattering by a superconductor

Superconductivity 2012-02-23 v1

Abstract

The interaction between radiation and superconductors is explored in this paper. In particular, the calculation of a plane standing wave scattered by an infinite cylindrical superconductor is performed by solving the Helmholtz equation in cylindrical coordinates. Numerical results computed up to O(77)\mathcal{O}(77) of Bessel functions are presented for different wavelengths showing the appearance of a diffraction pattern.
