Deskripsi

It may happen that under a certain wave interrogation, a medium scatterer produces no scattering. In such a case, the scattering field is trapped inside the scatterer and forms a certain interior resonant mode. We are concerned with the behavior of the wave propagation inside a transparent scatterer. It turns out that the study can be boiled down to analyzing the interior transmission eigenvalue problem. For isotropic mediums, it is shown in a series of recent works that the transmission eigenfunctions possess rich patterns. In this paper, we show that those spectral patterns also hold for anisotropic mediums.
