Abstract

The paper is devoted to the mathematical analysis of scattered time-harmonic electromagnetic waves by an infinitely long cylindrical orthotropic waveguide iris. This is modeled by an orthotropic Maxwell system in a cylindrical waveguide iris for plane waves propagating in the x3-direction, imbedded in an isotropic infinite medium. The problem is equivalently reduced to a 2-dimensional boundary-contact problem with the operator div M grad+k2 inside the domain and the (Helmholtz) operator Δ+k2 = div grad+k2 outside the domain. Here M is a 2 × 2 positive definite, symmetric matrix with constant, real valued entries. The unique solvability of the appropriate boundary value problems is proved and the regularity of solutions is established in Bessel potential spaces.
