Abstract

Under examination is the system of equations of electrodynamics for a nonconducting nonmagnetic medium with the simplest anisotropy of permittivity. We assume that permittivity is characterized by the diagonal matrix ϵ = diag(ε1, ε1, ε2), with the functions ε1 and ε2 equal to positive constants beyond a bounded convex domain Ω ⊂ ℝ3. Two modes of traveling plane waves exist in a homogeneous anisotropic medium. The structure is studied of the solutions related to the traveling plane waves incident from infinity on an inhomogeneity located in Ω.
