Materials with anisotropic material parameters can be utilized to fabricate many fascinating devices, such as hyperlenses, metasolids, and one-way waveguides. In this study, we analyze the effects of geometric anisotropy on a two-dimensional metamaterial composed of a rectangular array of elliptic cylinders and derive an effective medium theory for such a metamaterial. We find that it is possib...

In HeLa cells cultured in a medium containing 142 mequiv./l. sodium ions only the mitotic forms are birefringent (anisotropic index, 27/1000). In a culture medium containing 155-160 mequiv./l. sodium ions, large numbers of nuclear forms reminiscent of the prophase were found. In such a medium the anisotropic index was 86/1000. At low sodium ion concentration (90-110 mequiv./l.) these anomalous,...

The scattering fields from an anisotropic uniaxial-coated conducting sphere by a plane wave are derived. The electromagnetic fields in uniaxial anisotropic medium and free space can be expressed in terms of spherical vector wave functions in uniaxial anisotropic media and isotropic medium. Applying the boundary condition in the interface between the uniaxial anisotropic medium and free space, t...

A bstract We study the evolution of an energetic jet which propagates in anisotropic quark-gluon plasma, as created intermediate stages ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions. argue that partons should acquire a non-zero average polarisation proportional to medium anisotropy. first observe anisotropy introduces difference between rates for transverse momentum broadening along two directions per...

A Mathematical model has been considered to study the reflection and refraction phenomenon of plane wave at the interface of an isotropic liquid medium and a triclinic (anisotropic) half-space. The incident plane qP wave generates three types of reflected waves namely quasi-P (qP), quasi-SV (qSV) and quasi-SH (qSH) waves in the tric...

A new wavefield extrapolation method has been developed that allows the propagation of waves in an anisotropic medium. The anisotropic medium considered here is transversely isotropic (TI) with an axis of symmetry. Our method applies an asymmetric explicit correction filter after the normal isotropic extrapolation operator. It is stable and suitable for laterally varying TI media. This new sche...

We investigate electromagnetic wave propagation in an inhomogeneous anisotropic medium. For the case of an orthotropic medium we derive the Lippmann-Schwinger equation, which is equivalent to a system of strongly singular integral equations. Uniqueness and existence of a solution is shown and we examine the regularity of the solution by means of integral equations. We prove the innnite Fr echet...
