In the figure below, Fδl is the work done by an external force. If F is along δl (ie. is positive), then the force between the plates is attractive. This work goes into increasing the electrostatic energy carried by the electric field and into forcing charge into the battery holding the plates at constant potential φ12. Conservation of energy gives Fδl = δW + δQφ12 or F = ∂W ∂l + ∂Q ∂l φ12 From problem 1.8, a) Charge fixed. 1) Parallel plate capacitor W = 1 2 0A φ122 d , φ12 = dQ A 0 → W = 1 2 0A dQ A0 2 d = d 20A Q2 ∂Q ∂l = 0, F = ∂W ∂l = Q2 20A (attractive) 2) Parallel cylinder capacitor φ12 = λ0 ln d a , a = a1a2 W = 1 2 Qφ12 → F = ∂W∂l = 1 2 Q λ0 ∂ ∂d ln da = 1 2 λQ 0d (attractive) b) Potential fixed 1) Parallel plate capacitor Using Gauss’s law, Q = φ12A 0 d , ∂∂l Q = φ12A 0 d2 1.9 13 → F = − 1 2 0A φ122 d2 + φ122 A 0 d2 = 1 2 0A φ122 d2 = 1 2 0A Qd 0A 2 d2 = 1 20A Q2 2) Parallel cylinder capacitor W = 1 2 Qφ12, and Q = 0Lφ12 ln da so W = 1 2 0Lφ122 ln da , ∂W ∂l = − 1 2 0L φ122 ln2 da d ∂Q ∂l = 0L φ12 ln2 da d F = − 1 2 0L φ122 ln2 da d + 0L φ122 ln2 da d = 1 2 0L φ122 ln2 da d 14 1.10 15 1.11 R x R y dx dy’ dy dz x y z E-Field A C B B’ A’ C’ dx’ 16 1.11,Method1 (enlightning but a little cumbersome): The point of interest is located at the origin of a cartesian coordinate system the xy-plane of which defines the tangent plane to the curved surface (at the point of interest). Further, the directions of the x- and y-axes are such that locally the curved surface can be described as the set of points with coordinates S(x, y) = xx̂ + yŷ − ( 12Rx x2 + 12Ry y2)ẑ. It has been discussed in class that it is always possible to find orthogonal coordinate axes on the tangent plane that allow such a parametrization of the curved surface. For the situation depicted in the figure, it would be Rx > 0 and Ry > 0. Due to the orthogonality of x̂ and ŷ, a surface element with side lengths dx and dy on the curved surface has the area da = dx dy. At a location S(x, y) on the curved surface, a normal vector to the plane is ∂S∂x × ∂S∂y = xRx x̂+ y Ry ŷ+ ẑ. Using this fact, it can be seen that an area element da′ = dx′ dy′ located at a height dz above da, constructed as shown in the figure, will have the property that the “sidewalls” of a pillbox with da′ and da as upper and lower surfaces are orthogonal to the curved surface. Since the electric field, depicted in red in the figure, also is orthogonal to the surface, the electric flux through the sidewalls is zero. Due to Gauss’s law, the fluxes through da and da′ must be equal and opposite. Considering that the field is (anti)parallel to both vectors da and da′, it follows that E′da′ = Eda, with E and E′ being the field magnitudes on da and da′, respectively. Simple geometry apparent in the figure yields dx′ = dx(1+ dz Rx ) and dy′ = dy(1+ dzRy ). Thus, for infinitesimally small dx, dy and dz it is da′ = (1 + dzRx + dz Ry )da, and E′ = E da da′ = E(1 + dz Rx + dz Ry )−1 = E(1− dz Rx − dz Ry ) (9) Thus, 1 E E′ − E dz = 1 E ∂E ∂n = − ( 1 Rx + 1 Ry ) q.e.d. (10) Note: for the case depicted in the figure, both principal radii are > 0, and consequently ∂E ∂n < 0, as expected. 17 1.11,Method2 : (“cleanest” proof): The electric field is (anti)parallel to both vectors da and da′ of the lower and upper planes in the figure, respectively. It follows from Gauss’s law thatE′da′ = Eda, with E and E′ being the field magnitudes on da and da′. To find da, refer to the points defined in the figure and set A = S(0, 0) = 0, B = S(dx, 0) = dxx̂− 12Rx dx2ẑ, and C = S(0, dy) = dyŷ− 12Ry dy2ẑ. Then, in lowest order of dx and dy it is da = |(B−A)×(C−A)| = dx dy. To find da′, we need to determine the points A′, B′, C′ that lie at a distance dz above the points A, B, C. Thereby, “above” means that the lines A′ − A etc. are parallel to the position-dependent normal vectors n̂ of the curved surface. The normal vectors are n̂(x, y) = ∂S∂x × ∂S∂y = xRx x̂ + y Ry ŷ + ẑ. Note that |n̂(x, y)| = 1, up to second- and higher-order corrections. It is thus found A′ = A′ + dzn̂(0, 0) = dzẑ, B′ = (dx + dx dzRx )x̂ + (dz − dx 2 2Rx )ẑ, and C′ = (dy + dy dzRy )ŷ + (dz − dy2 2Ry )ẑ. Then, in first order of dx and dy it is found that da′ = |(B′ −A′)× (C′ −A′)| = dx dy ( 1 + dzRx + dz Ry ) . It follows E′ = E da da′ = E(1 + dz Rx + dz Ry )−1 = E(1− dz Rx − dz Ry ) (11) and 1 E E′ − E dz = 1 E ∂E ∂n = − ( 1 Rx + 1 Ry ) q.e.d. (12) 18 1.11,Method3 : (fast, less enlightning): Using the coordinate system in the figure, at location S(x, y) on the curved surface the normal vector to the plane is ∂S∂x × ∂S∂y = xRx x̂ + y Ry ŷ + ẑ. Since we are only interested in the local behavior in the vicinity of the origin, x ¿ Rx and y ¿ Ry, and the length of the normal vector is 1, with corrections of order (x/Rx)2 and (y/Ry)2. Thus, the electric field on the surface has, locally, a form E(x, y) = E ( x Rx x̂ + yRy ŷ + ẑ ) with locally constant magnitude E. At the origin, we therefore have ∂Ex ∂x = E Rx and ∂Ey ∂y = E Ry . (13) Noting that the field is normal to the curved surface, it also is ∂Ez ∂z = ∂E ∂z = ∂E ∂n (14) From ∇ ·E = 0 it then follows ∂Ez ∂z = ∂E ∂n = − ( ∂Ex ∂x + ∂Ey ∂y ) = −E ( 1 Rx + 1 Ry ) (15) and 1 E ∂E ∂n = − ( 1 Rx + 1 Ry ) q.e.d. (16) 19 1.12 20 1.14 Consider the electrostatic Green functions of Section 1.10 for Dirichlet and Neumann boundary conditions on the surface S bounding the volume V . Apply Green’s theorem (1.35) with integration variable ~y and φ = G(~x, ~y ), ψ = G(~x ′, ~y), with ∇2yG(~z, ~y ) = −4πδ(~y − ~z ). Find an expression for the difference [G(~x, ~x ′) − G(~x ′, ~x)] in terms of an integral over the boundary surface S. Using φ and ψ as indicated in Green’s theorem, we have∫ V ( G(~x, ~y )∇2yG(~x ′, ~y )−G(~x ′, ~y )∇2yG(~x, ~y ) ) d3y = ∮ S ( G(~x, ~y ) ∂G(~x ′, ~y ) ∂ny −G(~x ′, ~y )∂G(~x, ~y ) ∂ny ) day Since ∇2yG(~x, ~y ) = −4πδ(~x− ~y ), the left hand side integrates to −4π[G(~x, ~x ′)− G(~x ′, ~x )]. Dividing both sides by −4π finally gives G(~x, ~x ′)−G(~x ′, ~x ) = 1 4π ∮ S ( G(~x ′, ~y ) ∂G(~x, ~y ) ∂ny −G(~x, ~y )∂G(~x ′, ~y ) ∂ny ) day (2) a) For Dirichlet boundary conditions on the potential and the associated boundary condition on the Green function, show that GD(~x, ~x ′) must be symmetric in ~x and ~x ′. For the Dirichlet Green’s function, GD(~x, ~y ) = 0 for ~y on the boundary S. This means that the right hand side of (2) vanishes. Then we automatically find GD(~x, ~x ′) = GD(~x ′, ~x ) b) For Neumann boundary conditions, use the boundary condition (1.45) forGN (~x, ~x ′) to show that GN (~x, ~x ′) is not symmetric in general, but that GN (~x, ~x ′)− F (~x ) is symmetric in ~x and ~x ′, where F (~x ) = 1 S ∮ S GN (~x, ~y ) day We use the Neumann boundary condition ∂GN (~x, ~y ) ∂ny = −4π S for ~y on the boundary S. This means the right hand side of (2) becomes RHS = 1 S ∮ S ( GN (~x, ~y )−GN (~x ′, ~y ) ) day = F (~x )− F (~x ′) where we used the definition of F (~x ) given in the problem. This yields GnewN (~x, ~x ′) ≡ GN (~x, ~x ′)− F (~x ) = GN (~x ′, ~x )− F (~x ′) (3) which demonstrates that GnewN (~x, ~x ′) is symmetric in ~x and ~x′. 1.14 21 c) Show that the addition of F (~x ) to the Green function does not affect the potential Φ(~x ). See problem 3.26 for an example of the Neumann Green function. What we need to do is to show that the Neumann Green’s function solution Φ(~x ) = 〈Φ〉S + 1 4π�0 ∫ V ρ(~x ′)GN (~x, ~x ′) d3x′ + 1 4π ∮ S ∂Φ(~x ′) ∂n′ GN (~x, ~x ′) da′ (4) is unchanged when we replaceGN byGnewN . If we let Φ new denote the computation using GnewN , then Φnew(~x ) = 〈Φ〉S + 1 4π�0 ∫ V ρ(~x ′)GnewN (~x, ~x ′) d3x′ + 1 4π ∮ S ∂Φ(~x ′) ∂n′ GnewN (~x, ~x ′) da′ = 〈Φ〉S + 1 4π�0 ∫ V ρ(~x ′)GN (~x, ~x ′) d3x′ + 1 4π ∮ S ∂Φ(~x ′) ∂n′ GN (~x, ~x ′) da′ − 1 4π�0 ∫ V ρ(~x ′)F (~x ) d3x′ − 1 4π ∮ S ∂Φ(~x ′) ∂n′ F (~x ) da′ = Φ(~x )− F (~x ) 4π�0 (∫ V ρ(~x ′) d3x′ + �0 ∮ S ∂Φ(~x ′) ∂n′ da′ ) = Φ(~x )− F (~x ) 4π�0 ( qenc − �0 ∮ S ~E(~x ′) · n̂′ da′ ) where we used the fact that n̂ · ~E = −n̂ · ~∇Φ = −∂Φ/∂n. A simple application of Gauss’ law then demonstrates that Φnew = Φ. Hence we have shown that the addition of F (~x ) leaves the solution unchanged. This demonstrates that we can always make GN symmetric by appropriate modification with F . Note that from (3) we could instead have defined the symmetric combination GbadN (~x, ~x ′) = GN (~x, ~x ′) +F (~x ′). However this is a bad thing to do, as substitu- tion of GbadN into (4) will generate an incorrect solution for Φ. 22 a): There are n conductors with surfaces Si, potentials Vi and charges Qi (i = 1, ..., n). Assume that there is only one conductor with non-zero potential. Call the index of that conductor k, its potential V , and its charge Q. ²0 ∫ V |∇Φ|2d3x = (by Green I) −²0 ∫ V Φ∇2Φd3x + ²0 ∫ ∂V Φ ∂ ∂n Φda = 0 + ²0 n∑ i=1 Vi ∫ Si ∂ ∂n Φda = n∑ i=1 Vi ∫ Si σda = Vk ∫ Sk σda = V Q Setting V=1, we have QV = CV 2 = C with capacitance C, and therefore C = ²0 ∫ V |∇Φ|2d3x q.e.d. . b): Write Ψ = Φ+δψ, with Φ being the exact solution for the potential, and δψ being the difference between the test function Ψ and Φ. Note that δψ = 0 on all surfaces Si. ²0 ∫ V |∇Ψ|2d3x = ²0 ∫ V |∇Φ|2d3x + 2²0 ∫ V ∇Φ · ∇δψd3x + ²0 ∫ V |∇δψ|2d3x = | by a) andGreen I C − 2²0 ∫ V (∆Φ)δψd3x ︸ ︷︷ ︸ + 2 ∫ ∂V δψ ∂ ∂n Φda ︸ ︷︷ ︸ + ²0 ∫ V |∇δψ|2d3x ︸ ︷︷ ︸ = | since ² ≥ 0 C + 0 + 0 + ² ≥ C (1) Thus, for all Ψ satisfying the boundary conditions it is C ≤ ²0 ∫ V |∇Ψ|2d3x q.e.d. . 1.17 23 For a well-behaved function f(x, y), the k-th order Taylor expansion around (x0, y0) is f(x, y) = m+n=k∑ m=0,n=0 1 m!n! ∂(m)x ∂ (n) y f |(x0,y0)(x− x0)m(y − y0)n (2) a): Cross average. Since either (x− x0) or (y− y0) is zero (while the other one ±h), the only non-vanishing terms are ones in which either n = 0 or m = 0. Using Fx = ∂∂xF , F2x = ∂2 ∂x2 F etc, it is F (h, 0) = F (0, 0) + hFx + h2 2 F2x + h3 6 F3x + h4 24 F4x + h5 120 F5x + h6C6 F (−h, 0) = F (0, 0)− hFx + h 2 2 F2x − h 3 6 F3x + h4 24 F4x − h 5 120 F5x + h6C6 F (0, h) = F (0, 0) + hFy + h2 2 F2y + h3 6 F3y + h4 24 F4y + h5 120 F5y + h6C6 F (0,−h) = F (0, 0)− hFy + h 2 2 F2y − h 3 6 F3y + h4 24 F4y − h 5 120 F5y + h6C6 and the cross sum evidently is Sc = 4F (0, 0)+h2(F2x+F2y)+ h4 12 (F4x+F4y)+O(h6) = 4F (0, 0)+h2∆F +h 4 12 (F4x+F4y)+O(h6) q.e.d. (3) b): Square sum. It is easily seen that due to cancellations in the square sum only terms in Eq. 2 contribute with both m and n even. Thus, it is: F (±h,±h) = F (0, 0) + h 2 2 (F2x + F2y) + h4 24 (F4x + F4y + 6F2x2y) + C6h6 + ... , (4) where the ... stand for terms that cancel when performing the square sum, and C6 for a 6-th order coefficient. Thus, Ss = 4F (0, 0) + 2h2(F2x + F2y) + h4 6 (F4x + F4y) + h4F2x2y +O(h6) . (5) Noting that ∆(∆F ) = F4x +2F2x2y +F4y, we see that F2x2y = 12 (∆(∆F )− F4x − F4y), and the square sum becomes Ss = 4F (0, 0) + 2h2∆F + h4 2 ∆(∆F ) + ( h4 6 − h 4 2 ) (F4x + F4y) +O(h6) (6) Ss = 4F (0, 0) + 2h2∆F + h4 2 ∆(∆F )− h 4 3 (F4x + F4y) +O(h6) q.e.d. (7) 1.22 24 Note: An improved average (=sum/4) can be defined as follows: S̄ = 1 5 Ss + 1 20 Sc = F (0, 0) + 3 10 h2∆F + 1 40 h4∆(∆F ) +O(h6) . (8) For functions F thatare solutions of the Laplace equation all correction terms up to and excluding the O(h6) vanish. In a charged space with charge density ρ(x), the expressions ∆F = − ρ ²0 and ∆(∆F ) ≈ − 4ρc ²0h2 + 4ρ ²0h2 , (9) with ρc being the cross average of the charge density, can be inserted into Eq. 8, yielding an equation that can be resolved for F (0, 0). This procedure and a consideration of the error in the second equation of Eq. 9 lead to Equation 1.82 in the textbook. 25 We will work in cylidrical coordinate, (ρ, z,φ, with the charge q located at the point d⃗ = dẑ, and the conducting plane is in the z = 0 plane.

Let σ/λ = −1π y0 x − x0 2 + y02 − y0 x + x0 2 + y0 2 This is an easy function to plot for various combinations of the position of the original line charge (x0,y0. c) If we integrate over a strip of width Δz, we find, where we use the integral ∫ 0 ∞ 1 x ∓ x0 2 + y02 dx = 1 2 π ± 2arctan x0y0 y0 ΔQ = ∫ 0 ∞ σdxΔz → ΔQ Δz = ∫0 ∞ σdx = −2λπ tan −1 x0 y0 and the total charge induced on the plane is −∞, as expected. d) Expanding 2.3 29 ln R 2 x − x0 2 + y − y0 2 − ln R 2 x − x0 2 + y + y0 2 − ln R 2 x + x0 2 + y − y0 2 + ln R 2 x + x0 2 + y + y to lowest non-vanishing order in x0, y0 gives 16 xy x2 + y2 2 y0x0 so φ → φasym = 4λπ 0 xy x2 + y2 2 y0x0 This is the quadrupole contribution. 30 wsD qY� PB�{� Bt �Y� }B$t� {Ys��� R $R nB ) d ;$6( R1 Q1 >d� p nw1Q1 �p1D QwQ1 �p1D1 H nQ Q V� �Y� }B$t� bY��� B ) (� �Y� PB�{� {Yst��R P�B8 ��}ZjR$%� �B s���s{�$%�� 7Bj%$t� B ) ( ) d ;$6( R1 Q1 >d� p nw1Q1 �p1D QwQ1 �p1D1 H, Bt� ���R wb$�Y �Y� Y�j} BP �Y� �u�X�9u�%|uD Q ) d 1 wd L $ xDp qY���PB�� s� s I$R�st{� R8sjj�� �Yst Q�p ) d 1 w $ x� dDp � (3EdMp P�B8 �Y� RZ�Ps{�� �Y� {Ys��� R $R s���s{��I �B �Y� R}Y���� wAD GY�t �Y� {Ys��� $R {jBR� �B �Y� RZ�Ps{� Q ) pL y � p� qY� PB�{� B ) d ;$6( R1 Q1 >d� p nw1Q1 �p1D QwQ1 �p1D1 H � d ;$6( R1 p1 >d� p x pwwpL yD1 �p1D1 H � � d dE$6( R1 y1 w{D qY� j$8$�$t� PB�{� Bt �Y� }B$t� {Ys��� R $R I����8$t�I Ak $�R�jP stI $�R $8s�� {Ys��� stI �Y���PB�� $R $tI�}�tI�t� BP �Y� {Ys��� Bt �Y� {BtIZ{�B�� <Bb�%��� �Y� jB{s�$Bt bY��� �Y� PB�{� {Yst��R A��b��t ��}ZjR$%� stI s���s{�$%� $R s PZt{�$Bt BP �Y� {Ys��� Bt �Y� R}Y���� 3B� < ) 1R� B ) ( ) d ;$6( R1 Q1 >1� p nw1Q1 �p1D QwQ1 �p1D1 H =R$t� PB� �-s8}j� �Y� �u�X�9u�%|u }�B��s8 �B RBj%� �Y� sAB%� �JZs�$Bt� Bt� ���R Q ) d3;1�Ep� $���� �Y� Rb$�{Y }B$t� $R s I$R�st{� (3;1�Ep sbsk P�B8 �Y� RZ�Ps{�� 3B� < ) d 1 R� B ) ( ) d ;$6( R1 Q1 >db1� p nw1Q1 �p1D QwQ1 �p1D1 H V�s$t� b$�Y �Y� Y�j} BP }�B��s8R j$,� �u�X�9u�%|u� Bt� ���R Q ) d3MM1np� qY� Rb$�{Y B%�� $R s I$R�st{� (3MM1np sbsk P�B8 �Y� RZ�Ps{�� 2.4 31 a) W = ∫ r ∞ |F|dy = q 2a 4π 0 ∫ r ∞ dy y3 1 − a 2 y2 2 = q2a 8π 0r2 − a2 Let us compare this to disassemble the charges − W′ = − 1 8π 0 ∑ i≠j q iq j |x⃗i−x⃗j | = 1 4π 0 aq2 r 1 r 1 − a 2 r2 = q 2a 4π 0r2 − a2 > W The reason for this difference is that in the first expression W, the image charge is moving and changing size, whereas in the second, whereas in the second, they don’t. b) In this case W = ∫ r ∞ |F|dy = q 4π 0 ∫ r ∞ Qdy y2 − qa3 ∫ r ∞ 2y2 − a2 yy2 − a2 2 dy Using standard integrals, this gives W = 1 4π 0 q2a 2r2 − a2 − q2a 2r2 − qQ r On the other hand − W′ = 1 4π 0 aq2 r2 − a2 − qQ + ar q r = 1 4π 0 aq2 r2 − a2 − q2a r2 − qQ r The first two terms are larger than those found in W for the same reason as found in a), whereas the last term is the same, because Q is fixed on the sphere. 2.5 32 We are considering two conducting spheres of radii ra and rb respectively. The charges on the spheres are Qa and Qb. a) The process is that you start with qa1 and qb1 at the centers of the spheres, and sphere a then is an equipotential from charge qa1 but not from qb1 and vice versa. To correct this we use the method of images for spheres as discussed in class. This gives the iterative equations given in the text. b) qa1 and qb1 are determined from the two requirements > j=1 β qaj = Qa and > j=1 β qbj = Qb As a program equation, we use a do-loop of the form > j=2 n qaj = −raqbj − 1 dbj − 1 and similar equations for qbj, xaj, xbj, daj,dbj. The potential outside the spheres is given by φx⃗ = 1 4π 0 >j=1 n qaj x⃗ − xajk̂ +> j=1 n qbj x⃗ − dbjk̂ This potential is constant on the surface of the spheres by construction. And the force between the spheres is F = 1 4π 0 > j,k qajqbk d − xaj − xbk 2 c) Now we take the special case Qa = Qb, ra = rb = R, d = 2R. Then we find, using the iteration equations xaj = xbj = xj x1 = 0, x2 = R/2, x3 = 2R/3, or xj = j − 1 j R qaj = qbj = qj qj = q, q2 = −q/2, q3 = q/3, or qj = −1 j+1 j q So, as n → β > j=1 β qj = q> j=1 β −1 j+1 j = q ln2 = Q → q = Q ln2 The force between the spheres is F = 1 4π 0 q2 R2 > j,k −1 j+k jk 2 − j−1 j − k−1 k 2 = 1 4π 0 q2 R2 > j,k −1 j+kjk j + k2 Evaluating the sum numerically 2.6 33 F = 1 4π 0 q2 R2 0.0739 = 1 4π 0 Q2 R2 1 ln22 0.0739 Comparing this to the force between the charges located at the centers of the spheres Fp = 14π 0 Q2 R24 Comparing the two results, we see F = 41 ln22 0.0739Fp = 0.615Fp On the surface of the sphere φ = 1 4π 0 > j=1 β qj R − xj = q 4π 0R > j=1 β −1 j+1 Notice 1 1 + 1 = > j=1 β −1 j+1 So φ = 1 4π 0 q 2R = 1 4π 0 Q 2 ln2R = Q C → C 4π 0R = 2 ln2 = 1. 386 34 The system is described by a) The Green’s function, which vanishes on the surface is obviously Gx⃗, x⃗ ′ = 1 |x⃗ − x⃗ ′ | − 1 |x⃗ − x⃗I′ | where x⃗ ′ = x ′î + y ′ ̂ + z ′ k̂, x⃗I′ = x ′î + y ′ ̂ − z ′ k̂ b) There is no free charge distribution, so the potential everywhere is determined by the potential on the surface. From Eq. (1.44) φx⃗ = − 1 4π ∫S φx⃗ ′ ∂Gx⃗, x⃗ ′ ∂n ′ da ′ Note that n̂ ′ is in the −z direction, so ∂ ∂n ′ Gx⃗, x⃗ ′|z′=0 = − ∂ ∂z Gx⃗, x⃗ ′|z′=0 = − 2z x − x ′ 2 + y − y ′2 + z2 3/2 So φx⃗ = z 2π V ∫ 0 a ∫ 0 2π ρ ′dρ ′dφ ′ x − x ′ 2 + y − y ′2 + z2 3/2 where x ′=ρ ′ cosφ ′,y ′ = ρ ′ sinφ ′. c) If ρ = 0, or equivalently x = y = 0, φz = z 2π V ∫ 0 a ∫ 0 2π ρ ′dρ ′dφ ′ ρ ′2 + z2 3/2 = zV ∫ 0 a ρdρ ρ2 + z2 3/2 φz = zV − z − a2 + z2 z a2 + z2 = V 1 − z a2 + z2 d) φx⃗ = z 2π V ∫ 0 a ∫ 0 2π ρ ′dρ ′dφ ′ ρ⃗ − ρ⃗ ′ 2 + z2 3/2 2.7 35 In the integration choose the x −axis parallel to ρ⃗, then ρ⃗ ⋅ ρ⃗ ′ = ρρ ′ cosφ ′ φx⃗ = z 2π V ∫ 0 a ∫ 0 2π ρ ′dρ ′dφ ′ ρ2 + ρ ′2 − 2ρ⃗ ⋅ ρ⃗ ′ + z2 3/2 Let r2 = ρ2 + z2, so φx⃗ = z 2π V r3 ∫ 0 a ∫ 0 2π ρ ′dρ ′dφ ′ 1 + ρ ′2−2ρ⃗⋅ρ⃗ ′ r2 3/2 We expand the denominator up to factors of O1/r4, ( and change notation φ ′ → θ,ρ ′ → α, r2 → 1 β2 φx⃗ = z 2π V r3 ∫ 0 a ∫ 0 2π αdαdθ 1 + α 2−2ρ⃗⋅α⃗ r2 3/2 where the denominator in this notation is written 1 1 + β2α2 − 2ραcosθ3/2 or, after expanding, φx⃗ = z 2π V r3 ∫ 0 a αdα ∫ 0 2π 1 − 3 2 β2α2 + 3β2ραcosθ + 15 8 β4α4 − 15 2 β4α3ρcosθ + 15 2 β4ρ2α2 cos2θ dθ Integrating over θ gives φx⃗ = z 2π V r3 ∫ 0 a α 2π + 15 4 β4α4π − 3β2α2π + 15 2 β4ρ2α2π dα Integrating over α yields φx⃗ = z 2π V r3 5 8 β4πa6 − 3 4 a4β2π + 15 8 a4β4ρ2π + πa2 or φx⃗ = Va 2 2ρ2 + z2 3/2 1 − 3 4 a2 ρ2 + z2 + 5 8 a4 + 3ρ2a2 ρ2 + z2 2 36 The system is pictured below a) Using the known potential for a line charge, the two line charges above give the potential φr⃗ = 1 2π 0 λ ln r ′ r = V, a constant. Let us define V ′ = 4π 0V Then the above equation can be written r ′ r 2 = e V ′ λ or r ′2 = r2e V ′ λ Writing r ′2 = r⃗ − R⃗ 2 , the above can be written r⃗ + ẑ R e V′ λ − 1 2 = R 2e V′ λ e V′ λ − 12 The equation is that of a circle whose center is at −ẑ R e V′ λ −1 , and whose radius is a = Re V′ 2λ e V′ λ −1 b) The geometry of the system is shown in the fugure. Note that d = R + d1 + d2 with d1 = R e Va′ λ −1 , d2 = R e −Vb ′ λ −1 and a = Re Va′ 2λ e Va′ λ − 1 , b = Re −Vb ′ 2λ e −Vb ′ λ − 1 Forming 2.8 37 d2 − a2 − b2 = R + R e Va′ λ −1 + R e −Vb ′ λ −1 2 − Re Va′ 2λ e Va′ λ − 1 2 − Re −Vb ′ 2λ e −Vb ′ λ − 1 2 or d2 − a2 − b2 = R2 e Va′ −Vb ′ λ + 1 e Va′ λ − 1e −Vb ′ λ − 1 Thus we can write d2 − a2 − b2 2ab = e Va′ −Vb ′ λ + 1 2e Va′ 2λ e −Vb ′ 2λ = e Va′ −Vb ′ 2λ + e − Va′ −Vb ′ 2λ 2 = cosh Va ′ − Vb′ 2λ or Va − Vb λ = 1 2π 0 cosh−1 d 2 − a2 − b2 2ab Capacitance/unit length = C L = Q/L Va − Vb = λ Va − Vb = 2π 0 cosh−1 d 2−a2−b2 2ab c) Suppose a2 << d2, and b2 << d2, and a ′ = ab , then C L = 2π 0 cosh−1 d 2−a2−b2 2a ′2 = 2π 0 cosh−1 d2 1−a2+b2/d2 2a ′2 cosh−1 d21 − a2 + b2/d2 2a ′2 = 2π 0L C d21 − a2 + b2/d2 2a ′2 = e 2π0L C 2 + negligible terms if 2π 0L C >> 1 or ln d21 − a2 + b2/d2 a ′2 = 2π 0L C or C L = 2π 0 ln d2 1−a2+b2/d2 a ′2 Let us defind α2 = a2 + b2/d2, then C L = 2π 0 ln d2 1−α2 a ′2 = 2π 0 ln d 2 a ′2 + 2π 0 ln2 d 2 a ′2 α2 + Oα4 The first term of this result agree with problem 1.7, and the second term gives the appropriate correction asked for. d) In this case, we must take the opposite sign for d2 − a2 − b2, since a2 + b2 > d2. Thus C L = 2π 0 cosh−1 a 2+b2−d2 2a ′2 If we use the identiy, lnx + x2 − 1 = cosh−1x, G.&R., p. 50., then for d = 0 38 C L = 2π 0 ln a 2+b2 2ab + a2−b2 2ab = 2π 0 ln a b in agreement with problem 1.6. 39 The system is pictured below a) We have treated this probem in class. We found the charge density induced was σ = 30E0 cosθ We also note the radial force/unit area outward from the surface is σ2/20. Thus the force on the right hand hemisphere is, using x = cosθ Fz = 120 ∫ σ2 ẑ ⋅ da⃗ = 120 30E0 22πR2 ∫ 0 1 x3dx = 1 20 30E0 22πR2/4 = 94 π 0E02R2 An equal force acting in the opposite direction would be required to keep the hemispheres from sparating. b) Now the charge density is σ = 30E0 cosθ + Q 4πR2 = 30E0x + Q 4πR2 = 30E0 x + Q 12π 0E0R2 Fz = 120 ∫ σ2 ẑ ⋅ da⃗ = 120 30E0 22πR2 ∫ 0 1 x x + Q 12π 0E0R2 2 dx Thus Fz = 94 π 0E02R2 + 1 2 QE0 + 1 320πR2 Q2 An equal force acting in the opposite direction would be required to keep the himispheres from separating. 2.9 40 As done in class we simulate the electric field E0 by two charges at ∞ σ = 30E0 cosθ a) This charge distribution simulates the given system for cosθ > 0.We have treated this probem in class.

II) φr⃗ = b� = φr⃗ = −b� or ln b − R ′ R − b = ln b + R ′ b + R or b − R ′ R − b = b + R ′ b + R This is an equation for R ′ with the solution R ′ = b 2 R The same condition we found for a sphere. b) 2.11 43 φr⃗ = τ 4π 0 ln r2 + b4 R2 − 2r b2R cosφ r2 + R2 − 2rRcosφ as r → ∞ φr⃗ = τ 4π 0 ln 1 − 2b2 cosφ/rR 1 − 2Rcosφ/r = τ 4π 0 ln 1 − 2 rR b2 − R2 cosφ Using ln1 + x = x − 1 2 x2 + 1 3 x3 + Ox4 φr⃗ = − τ 2π 0 1 rR b2 − R2 cosφ c) σ = −0 ∂∂r φ|r=b = − τ4π ∂ ∂r ln r2 + b4 R2 − 2r b2R cosφ r2 + R2 − 2rRcosφ r=b σ = τ 2πb 1 − y2 y2 + 1 − 2ycosφ where y = R/b.

The series solution (2.71) is given as Φ(ρ, φ) = a0 + b0 ln ρ + ∞∑ n=1 [anρn sin(nφ + αn) + bnρ−n sin(nφ + βn)] Since we want an inside solution, we take bn = 0 so the potential is well behaved at ρ = 0. With some rewriting of the series, we can then turn it into the equivalent form Φ(ρ, φ) = 12c0 + ∞∑ n=1 (ρ b )n [cn cos(nφ) + dn sin(nφ)] (1) Breaking up the sin(nφ + αn) terms into sines and cosines is convenient because we now end up with a standard Fourier series. The Fourier coefficients are cn = 1 π ∫ 2π 0 Φ(b, φ′) cos(nφ′) dφ′ dn = 1 π ∫ 2π 0 Φ(b, φ′) sin(nφ′) dφ′ Substituting this back into (1) yields Φ(b, φ) = 1 2π ∫ 2π 0 Φ(b, φ′) × [ 1 + 2 ∞∑ n=1 (ρ b )n ( cos(nφ) cos(nφ′) + sin(nφ) sin(nφ′) )] dφ′ = 1 2π ∫ 2π 0 Φ(b, φ′) [ 1 + 2 ∞∑ n=1 (ρ b )n cos n(φ′ − φ) ] dφ′ (2) 2.12 45 The series in the square brackets can be summed as a geometric series 1 + 2 ∞∑ n=1 (ρ b )n cos n(φ′ − φ) = < [ 1 + 2 ∞∑ n=1 (ρ b )n ein(φ ′−φ) ] = < [ −1 + 2 ∞∑ n=0 (ρ b ei(φ ′−φ) )n] = < [ −1 + 2 1− ρb ei(φ ′−φ) ] = < 1 + ρb e i(φ′−φ) 1− ρb ei(φ ′−φ) = < ( 1 + ρb e i(φ′−φ) ) ( 1− ρb e −i(φ′−φ) ) ( 1− ρb e i(φ′−φ) ) ( 1− ρb e −i(φ′−φ) ) = <1− (ρ/b) 2 + 2i(ρ/b) sin(φ′ − φ) 1 + (ρ/b)2 − 2(ρ/b) cos(φ′ − φ) = b2 − ρ2 b2 + ρ2 − 2ρb cos(φ′ − φ) Inserting this into (2) finally yields the result Φ(ρ, φ) = 1 2π ∫ 2π 0 Φ(b, φ′) b2 − ρ2 b2 + ρ2 − 2ρb cos(φ′ − φ) dφ′ (3) Note that this can be obtained more directly from the Cauchy integral formula of complex analysis (Jackson problem 2.21). For the exterior solution, we may simply take ρ/b→ b/ρ in (1). This corresponds to making the replacement ρ ↔ b in the fraction in the integrand of (3). Since this only affects the numerator, the simple result is that we change the sign of Φ(ρ, φ). 46 The system is pictured in the following figure: a) Notice from the figure, Φρ,−φ = Φρ,φ; thus from Eq. (2.71) in the text, Φρ,φ = a0 +∑ n=1 ∞ anρn cosnφ ∫ −π/2 3π/2 Φb,φ = 2πa0 = πV1 + πV2 → a0 = V1 + V2 2 Using ∫ −π/2 3π/2 cosmφ cosnφdφ = δnmπ Applying this to Φ, only odd terms m contribute in the sum and am = 2V1 − V2 πmbm −1 m−1 2 Thus Φρ,φ = V1 + V2 2 + 2V1 − V2 π Im ∑ m odd imρme imφ mbm Using 2 ∑ m odd xm m = ln 1 + x 1 − x and Im lnA + iB = tan−1B/A we get Φρ,φ = V1 + V2 2 + V1 − V2 π tan −1 2 ρ b cosφ 1 − ρ 2 b2 as desired. b) σ = −0 ∂∂ρ Φρ,φ|ρ=b 2.13 47 σ = −0 V1 − V2 π ∂ ∂ρ tan−1 2 ρ b cosφ 1 − ρ 2 b2 ρ=b σ = −20 V1 − V2 π bcosφ b2 + ρ2 b4 − 2b2ρ2 + ρ4 + 4ρ2b2 cos2φ |ρ=b = −0 V1 − V2 πbcosφ 48 2.14 A variant of the preceeding two-dimensional problem is a long hollow conducting cylinder of radius b that is divided into equal quarters, alternate segments being held at potential +V and −V . a) Solve by means of the series solution (2.71) and show that the potential inside the cylinder is Φ(ρ, φ) = 4V π ∞∑ n=0 (ρ b )4n+2 sin[(4n+ 2)φ] 2n+ 1 The general series solution for the two-dimensional problem in polar coordinates is given by (2.71) Φ(ρ, φ) = a0 + b0 log ρ+ ∞∑ n=1 anρ n sin(nφ+ αn) + bnρ−n sin(nφ+ βn) Since we are interested in the interior solution, we demand that the potential remains finite at ρ = 0. This indicates that the bn coefficients must all vanish. We are thus left with Φ(ρ, φ) = a0 + ∞∑ n=1 anρ n sin(nφ+ αn) which we may choose to rewrite as Φ(ρ, φ) = A0 2 + ∞∑ k=1 [Akρk cos(kφ) +Bkρk sin(kφ)] (1) This form of the series is supposed to be reminiscent of a Fourier series. The boundary condition for this problem is that the potential at ρ = b is either +V or −V , depending on which quadrant we are in VV− V −V b 49 This can be plotted as a function of φ Φ −π π −V V ϕ ), ϕb( It should be obvious that Φ(b, φ) is an odd function of φ. As a result, we im- mediately deduce that the Ak Fourier coefficients in (1) must vanish, leaving us with Φ(ρ, φ) = ∞∑ k=1 Bkρ k sin(kφ) (2) On the interior surface of the conducting cylinder, this reads Φ(b, φ) = ∞∑ k=1 Bkb k sin(kφ) where Φ(b, φ) is given by the figure above. In particular, we see that the quantities Bkb k are explicitly the Fourier expansion coefficients of a square wave with period π (which is half the usual 2π period). As a result, we may simply look up the standard Fourier expansion of the square wave and map it to this present problem. Alternatively, it is straightforward to calculate the coefficients directly Bkb k = 1 π ∫ π −π Φ(b, φ) sin(kφ)dφ = V π (∫ −π/2 −π − ∫ 0 −π/2 + ∫ π/2 0 − ∫ π π/2 ) sin(kφ)dφ = V kπ ( − cos(kφ) ∣∣∣−π/2 −π + cos(kφ) ∣∣∣0 −π/2 − cos(kφ) ∣∣∣π/2 0 − cos(kφ) ∣∣∣π π/2 ) = 2V kπ ( 1− 2 cos (kπ 2 ) + cos(kπ) ) = 8V kπ k = 2, 6, 10, 14, . . . (ie k = 4n+ 2) Substituting Bk = 8V/kπbk into (2) and usiing k = 4n+ 2 then gives Φ(ρ, φ) = 4V π ∞∑ n=0 (ρ b )4n+2 sin[(4n+ 2)φ] 2n+ 1 (3) 50 b) Sum the series and show that Φ(ρ, φ) = 2V π tan−1 ( 2ρ2b2 sin 2φ b4 − ρ4 ) This series is easy to sum if we work with complex variables. Since sin θ is the imaginary part of eiθ, we write (3) as Φ(ρ, φ) = 4V π = ∞∑ n=0 (ρ/b)4n+2e(4n+2)iφ 2n+ 1 = 4V π = ∞∑ n=0 z2n+1 2n+ 1 = 4V π = ( z + 13z 3 + 15z 5 + · · · ) (4) where z ≡ ρ 2 b2 e2iφ (5) Now recall that the Taylor series expansion for log(1 + z) is given by log(1 + z) = ∞∑ k=1 (−1)k+1 k zk = z − 12z 2 + 13z 3 − 14z 4 + 15z 5 − · · · We may eliminate the even powers of z by taking the difference between log(1+z) and log(1− z). This allows us to derive the series expression z + 13z 3 + 15z 5 + · · · = 1 2 log 1 + z 1− z Substituting this into (4) gives Φ(ρ, φ) = 2V π = log 1 + z 1− z = 2V π arg 1 + z 1− z Since arg(x+ iy) = tan−1(y/x), a bit of algebra gives Φ(ρ, φ) = 2V π tan−1 ( 2=z 1− |z|2 ) Using the expression for z given in (5), we finally obtain Φ(ρ, φ) = 2V π tan−1 ( 2(ρ2/b2) sin 2φ 1− (ρ2/b2)2 ) = 2V π tan−1 ( 2ρ2b2 sin 2φ b4 − ρ4 ) (6) 51 c) Sketch the field lines and equipotentials. The equipotentials correspond to φ(ρ, φ) = Φ0. To see what this looks like, we may invert (6) to solve for b as a function of φ at fixed Φ0. The result is 2ρ2b2 sin 2φ b4 − ρ4 = tan ( πΦ0 2V ) ⇒ (ρ/b)2 = − sin 2φ tan(πΦ0/2V ) + √ 1 + sin2 2φ tan2(πΦ0/2V ) A plot of the equipotentials is given by VV −V − V where we have also shown the electric field lines (the curves with arrows). 52 2.15 a) Show that the Green function G(x, y;x′, y′) appropriate for Dirichlet boundary conditions for a square two-dimensional region, 0 ≤ x ≤ 1, 0 ≤ y ≤ 1, has an expansion G(x, y;x′, y′) = 2 ∞∑ n=1 gn(y, y′) sin(nπx) sin(nπx′) where gn(y, y′) satisfies( ∂2 ∂y′2 − n2π2 ) gn(y, y′) = −4πδ(y′ − y) and gn(y, 0) = gn(y, 1) = 0 We start by recalling the the Green’s function is defined by (∂2x′ + ∂ 2 y′)G(x, y;x ′, y′) = −4πδ(x′ − x)δ(y′ − y) (7) Although this is symmetric in x′ and y′, the problem suggests that we begin by expanding in x′ (and also x). This of course breaks the symmetry in the expanded form of the Green’s function by treating x′ somewhat differently. Nevertheless G(x, y;x′, y′) is unique for the given boundary conditions; it just may admit 53 different expansions, and we are free to choose whatever expansion is the most convenient. Given the boundary condition that G vanishes for x′ = 0 and x′ = 1, this suggests an expansion in a Fourier sine series G(x, y;x′, y′) = ∞∑ n=1 fn(x, y; y′) sin(nπx′) Substituting this into (7) then gives ∞∑ n=1 (∂2y′ − n2π2)fn(x, y; y′) sin(nπx′) = −4πδ(x′ − x)δ(y′ − y) (8) However this is not particularly useful (yet), since the δ(x′−x) on the right hand side does not match with the Fourier sine series on the left. We can get around this by invoking the completeness relation for the sine series ∞∑ n=1 sin(nπx) sin(nπx′) = 12δ(x− x ′) By replacing the delta function in (8) by this sum, we end up with ∞∑ n=1 (∂2y′ − n2π2)fn(x, y; y′) sin(nπx′) = −8πδ(y′ − y) ∞∑ n=1 sin(nπx) sin(nπx′)(9) Matching left and right sides of the Fourier sine series indicates that the x be- havior of fn(x, y; y′) must be given by sin(nπx). Putting in a factor of two for convenience fn(x, y; y′) = 2gn(y, y′) sin(nπx) finally motivates the expansion G(x, y;x′, y′) = 2 ∞∑ n=1 gn(y, y′) sin(nπx) sin(nπx′) When this is inserted into (9), we match the x and x′ behavior perfectly, and we are left with an equation in y′ (∂2y′ − n2π2)gn(y, y′) = −4πδ(y′ − y) (10) The boundary conditions are that G vanishes at y′ = 0 and y′ = 1. Hence we must also demand gn(y, 0) = gn(y, 1) = 0. b) Taking for gn(y, y′) appropriate linear combinations of sinh(nπy′) and cosh(nπy′) in the two regions, y′ < y and y′ > y, in accord with the boundary conditions 54 and the discontinuity in slope required by the source delta function, show that the explicit form of G is G(x, y;x′, y′) = 8 ∞∑ n=1 1 n sinh(nπ) sin(nπx) sin(nπx′) sinh(nπy<) sinh[nπ(1− y>)] where y<(y>) is the smaller (larger) of y and y′. To find the Green’s function for (10), we begin with the solution to the homoge- neous equation (∂2y′ − n2π2)gn(y, y′) = 0. This clearly has exponential solutions e±nπy ′ , or equivalently sinh(nπy′) and cosh(nπy′). As a result, we can write the Green’s function as gn(y, y′) = { g< ≡ a< sinh(nπy′) + b< cosh(nπy′) y′ < y g> ≡ a> sinh(nπy′) + b> cosh(nπy′) y′ > y (11) We wish to solve for the four constants a<, b<, a>, b> given the boundary condi- tions gn(y, 0) = 0, gn(y, 1) = 0 and the continuity and jump conditions g> = g< ∂y′g> = ∂y′g< − 4π when y′ = y We start with the boundary conditions. For g< to vanish at y′ = 0 we must take the sinh solution, while for g> to vanish at y′ = 1 we end up with a> sinh(nπ) + b> cosh(nπ) = 0 or b> = −a> tanh(nπ). Thus gn(y, y′) = { a< sinh(nπy′) y′ < y a>[sinh(nπy′)− tanh(nπ) cosh(nπy′)] y′ > y (12) The continuity and jump conditions yield the system of equations( sinh(nπy) − sinh(nπy) + tanh(nπ) cosh(nπy) cosh(nπy) − cosh(nπy) + tanh(nπ) sinh(nπy) )( a< a> ) = ( 0 4/n ) which is solved by( a< a> ) = − 4 n tanh(nπ) ( sinh(nπy)− tanh(nπ) cosh(nπy) sinh(nπy) ) = − 4 n sinh(nπ) ( cosh(nπ) sinh(nπy)− sinh(nπ) cosh(nπy) cosh(nπ) sinh(nπy) ) Inserting this into (12) gives gn(y, y′) = 4 n sinh(nπ) × { sinh(nπy′)[sinh(nπ) cosh(nπy)− cosh(nπ) sinh(nπy)] y′ < y sinh(nπy)[sinh(nπ) cosh(nπy′)− cosh(nπ) sinh(nπy′)] y′ > y 55 This is simplified by noting sinh[nπ(1− y)] = sinh(nπ) cosh(nπy)− cosh(nπ) sinh(nπy) and by using the definition y< = min(y, y′) and y> = max(y, y′). The result is gn(y, y′) = 4 n sinh(nπ) sinh(nπy<) sinh[nπ(1− y>)] which yields G(x, y;x′, y′) = ∑ n 8 n sinh(nπ) sin(nπx) sin(nπx′) sinh(nπy<) sinh[nπ(1− y>)] Alternatively, instead of using (11), note that we can automatically solve the boundary conditions gn(y, 0) = gn(y, 1) = 0 by writing gn(y, y′) = { g< ≡ a< sinh(nπy′) y′ < y g> ≡ a> sinh[nπ(1− y′)] y′ > y Solving the continuity and jump conditions then gives directly a< = 4 n sinh[nπ(1− y)] sinh(nπ) , a> = 4 n sinh(nπy) sinh(nπ) so that gn(y, y′) = 4 n sinh(nπ) { sinh[nπ(1− y)] sinh(nπy′) y′ < y sinh(nπy) sinh[nπ(1− y′)] y′ > y which is the same result as above. Finally, we note that the one-dimensional Green’s function gn(y, y′) can also be obtained through Sturm-Liouville theory as gn(y, y′) = − 1 A u(y<)v(y>) where u(y′) and v(y′) are solutions to the homogeneous equation satisfying bound- ary conditions at y′ = 0 and y′ = 1, respectively. Here A is a constant given by W (u, v) = A/p where W is the Wronskian, and the self-adjoint differential oper- ator is L = d dy′ p(y′) d dy′ + q(y′) 56 3$�R� BP sjj� �Y� _B$RRBt $t����sj RBjZ�$Bt $R �Y� RBjZ�$Bt BP _�BAj�8 1�d1� $���� �Y� }B��t�$sj $tR$I� s {kj$tI��U w', *D ) d 1$ 8 1$ ( wK,*ID K1 � '1 K1 L '1 � 1K' {BRw*I � *DQ* I ]sZ{Yk:R �Y�B��8 $R �-}��RR�I ZR$t� {B8}j�- %s�$sAj� F bY��� F ) '�7*� N�� F A� $tR$I� �Y� {Z�%� g stI B wFD ) wFD� b� �Y�t Ys%� wFD ) d 1$7 - wFID FI � FQF I e-}jB$�$t� �Y� Y$t�� �Y� $8s�� }B$t� BP F $R wK1b/F/D�7* ) K1bF wY��� F $R �Y� {B8}j�- {Bt`Z�s�� BP FD bY${Y j$�R BZ�R$I� �Y� {Z�%� g� qY���PB�� d 1$7 - wFID FI � K1bF QF I ) ( 7ZA��s{� �Y$R 9��B $t����sj P�B8 �Y� wFDU wFD ) d 1$7 - wFID\ d FI � F � d FI � K1bF iQF I 3B� �Y� _B$RRBt $t����sj }�BAj�8� �Y� {Z�%� g $R {$�{j� BP �sI$ZR K� FI $R Bt �Y� {Z�%�� $���� FIFI ) K1� =R$t� �Y� $I�t�$�k FI � K 1 F ) FI � FIFI bF ) F I F wF � FI D Bt� ���R d FI � F � d FI � K1bF ) d FI � F L F bFI FI � F ) FI � F L F � FF bFI /FI � F/1 ) d FI FIF � FF /FI � F/1 _jZ��$t� $t �B �Y� }B��t�$sj wFDU wFD ) d 1$7 - wFIDFI FIFI � FF /FI � F/1 QFI FI yt }Bjs� {BB�I$ts�� RkR��8� F ) '�7*� FI ) K�7* I � �Y���PB�� FF ) '1, FIFI ) K1, QFI FI ) 7Q*I /FI � F/1 ) '1 L K1 � 1K' {BRw*I � *D qY� }B��t�$sj $tR$I� �Y� {Z�%� $t }Bjs� {BB�I$ts��R w', *D ) d 1$ 8 1$ ( wK,*ID K1 � '1 K1 L '1 � 1K' {BRw*I � *DQ* I 2.21 57 2.22 a) For the example of oppositely charged conducting hemispherical shells separated by a tiny gap, as shown in Figure 2.8, show that the interior potential (r < a) on the z axis is Φin(z) = V a z [ 1− (a 2 − z2) a √ a2 + z2 ] 58 Find the first few terms of the expansion in powers of z and show that they agree with (2.27) with the appropriate substitutions. As we have seen, the Green’s function for the interior conducting sphere problem is equivalent to that for the exterior problem. The only difference we need to account for is that, for the interior problem, the outward pointing normal indeed points away from the center of the sphere. This indicates that the interior potential may be expressed as Φ(r.Ω) = 1 4π ∫ Φ(a,Ω′) a(a2 − r2) (r2 + a2 − 2ar cos γ)3/2 dΩ′ where cos γ = cos θ cos θ′ + sin θ sin θ′ cos(φ− φ′) In fact, introducing the absolute value |a2−r2|, it is easy to see that the expression Φ(r,Ω) = a|a2 − r2| 4π ∫ Φ(a,Ω′) (r2 + a2 − 2ar cos γ)3/2 dΩ′ is valid for both the interior and the exterior problem. For the oppositely charged hemisphere problem, this integral takes the form Φ(r,Ω) = V a|a2 − r2| 4π ∫ 2π 0 dφ′ ∫ 1 0 d(cos θ′)[ (r2 + a2 − 2ar cos γ)−3/2 − (r2 + a2 + 2ar cos γ)−3/2 ] This simplifies on the z axis, where θ = 0 implies cos γ = cos θ′. We find Φ(z) = V a|a2 − z2| 4π ∫ 2π 0 dφ′ ∫ 1 0 d(cos θ′)[ (z2 + a2 − 2az cos θ′)−3/2 − (z2 + a2 + 2az cos θ′)−3/2 ] = V |a2 − z2| 2z [ (z2 + a2 − 2az cos θ′)−1/2 − (z2 + a2 + 2az cos θ′)−1/2 ]1 0 = V |a2 − z2| 2z ( 1 |z − a| + 1 |z + a| − 2√ z2 + a2 ) = V z ( max(a, z)− |a 2 − z2|√ z2 + a2 ) (13) For the interior, z < a, this may be rewritten as Φin(z) = V a z ( 1− a 2 − z2 a √ a2 + z2 ) (14) 59 while for the exterior, z > a, this becomes Φout(z) = V ( 1− z 2 − a2 z √ a2 + z2 ) The interior solution, (14), may be expanded for z ≈ 0. The result is Φin(z) = 3V 2 (z a )[ 1− 7 12 (z a )2 + 11 24 (z a )4 − · · · ] (15) This may be compared with the exterior solution (2.27) Φout(r, θ) = 3V 2 (a r )2 [ P1(cos θ)− 7 12 (a r )2 P3(cos θ) + · · · ] ⇒ Φout(z) = 3V 2 (a z )2 [ 1− 7 12 (a z )2 + · · · ] This demonstrates that the expansion coefficients agree, and that in fact the interior and exterior expressions are identical up to the substitution in: ( r a )l ↔ out: (a r )l+1 b) From the result of part a and (2.22), show that the radial electric field on the positive z axis is Er(z) = V a2 (z2 + a2)3/2 ( 3 + a2 z2 ) for z > a, and Er(z) = − V a [ 3 + (a/z)2 (1 + (z/a)2)3/2 − a 2 z2 ] for |z| < a. Show that the second form is well behaved at the origin, with the value, Er(0) = −3V/2a. Show that at z = a (north pole inside) it has the value −( √ 2− 1)V/a. Show that the radial field at the north pole outside has the value√ 2V/a. The radial electric field on the positive z axis is given by Er(z) = − ∂ ∂z Φ(z) Rewriting the potential Φ(z) in (13) as Φ(z) = V ( max(a/z, 1)− |a 2 − z2| z √ z2 + a2 ) 60 we find Er(z) = −V ( − a z2 + a2(a2 +3z2) z2(z2 + a2)3/2 ) z < a −V ( − a 2(a2 + 3z2) z2(z2 + a2)3/2 ) z > a This may be simplified to read Er(z) = −V a ( 3 + (a/z)2 (1 + (z/a)2)3/2 − a 2 z2 ) z < a V a 3 + (a/z)2 (1 + (z/a)2)3/2 z > a (16) which is the desired result. As z → 0, we may Taylor expand the interior solution to obtain Er(z) = − 3V 2a [ 1− 7 4 (z a )2 + 55 24 (z a )4 − · · · ] Hence Er(0) = −3V/2a. Note that this result could have been obtained directly by differentiating (15). Finally, the value of the radial electric field at z = a− (immediately inside) and z = a+ (immediately outside) may be obtained from (16) Er(a±) = −V a ( √ 2− 1) z = a− V a √ 2 z = a+ c) Make a sketch of the electric field lines both inside and outside the conducting hemispheres, with directions indicated. Make a plot of the radial electric field along the z axis from z = −2a to z = +2a. A rough sketch of the electric field lines is as follows 61 Note that the field lines are not necessarily continuous from the inside to the outside of the hemispheres. The z component of the electric field along the z axis is given by (16) -2 -1 1 2 -1.5 -1 -0.5 0.5 1 z /a /( V /a)zE Note that Ez is positive (pointed upwards) outside the sphere, and negative (pointed downwards) inside the sphere. By symmetry, Ez is the only non- vanishing component of the electric field along the axis. The radial or r com- ponent of the electric field, Er, is the same as Ez on the +z axis, but has the opposite sign on the −z axis -2 -1 1 2 -1.5 -1 -0.5 0.5 1 1.5 z /a /( V /a)rE 62 2.23 A hollow cube has conducting walls defined by six planes x = 0, y = 0, z = 0, and x = a, y = a, z = a. The walls z = 0 and z = a are held at a constant potential V . The other four sides are at zero potential. a) Find the potential Φ(x, y, z) at any point inside the cube. The potential may be obtained by superposition Φ = Φtop + Φbottom where Φtop (Φbottom) is the solution for a hollow cube with the top (bottom) held at constant potential V and all other sides at zero potential. As we have seen, the series solution for Φtop is given by Φtop = ∑ n,m An,m sin (nπx a ) sin (mπx a ) sinh (√n2 + n2 πz a ) where An,m = 4 a2 sinh( √ n2 +m2 π) ∫ a 0 dx ∫ a 0 dy V sin (nπx a ) sin (mπx a ) 63 Noting that∫ a 0 sin (nπx a ) dx = − a nπ cos (nπx a )∣∣∣a 0 = a nπ (1− (−1)n) = 2a nπ for n odd we have An,m = 16V nmπ2 sinh( √ n2 +m2 π) n,m odd and hence Φtop = 16V π2 ∑ n,m odd 1 nm sinh( √ n2 +m2 π) × sin (nπx a ) sin (mπx a ) sinh (√n2 + n2 πz a ) To obtain Φbottom, it is sufficient to realize that symmetry allows us to take z → a− z. More precisely Φbottom(x, y, z) = Φtop(x, y, a− z) As a result Φ = Φtop + Φbottom = 16V π2 ∑ n,m odd 1 nm sinh( √ n2 +m2 π) sin (nπx a ) sin (mπx a ) × [ sinh (√n2 + n2 πz a ) + sinh (√n2 +m2 π(a− z) a )] Note that this may be simplified using sinh ζ + sinh(α− ζ) = 2 sinh(α/2) cosh(ζ − α/2) to read Φ = 16V π2 ∑ n,m odd 1 nm cosh( √ n2 +m2 π/2) × sin (nπx a ) sin (mπx a ) cosh (√n2 +m2 π(z − a/2) a ) (17) b) Evaluate the potential at the center of the cube numerically, accurate to three significant figures. How many terms in the series is it necessary to keep in order to attain this accuracy? Compare your numerical result with the average value of the potential on the walls. See Problem 2.28. 64 At the center of the cube, (x, y, z) = (a/2, a/2, a/2), the potential from (17) reads Φ(center) = 16V π2 ∑ n,m odd sin(nπ/2) sin(mπ/2) nm cosh( √ n2 +m2 π/2) = 16V π2 ∞∑ i,j=0 (−1)i+j (2i+ 1)(2j + 1) cosh( √ (2i+ 1)2 + (2j + 1)2 π/2) Numerically, the first few terms in this series are given by n m Φn,m/V running total 1 1 .347546 .347546 1 3 −.007524 3 1 −.007524 .332498 3 3 .000460 .332958 1 5 .000215 5 1 .000215 .333389 3 5 −.000023 5 3 −.000023 .333343 This table indicates that we need to keep at least the first four terms to achieve accuracy to three significant figures. To this level of accuracy, we have Φ(center) ≈ .333V If we went to higher orders, it appears that the potential at the center is precisely Φ(center) = 13V which is the average value of the potential on the walls. In fact, we can prove (as in Problem 2.28) that the potential at the center of a regular polyhedron is equal to the average of the potential on the walls. Hence this value of V/3 is indeed exact. c) Find the surface-charge density on the surface z = a. For the surface-charge density on the inside top surface (z = a), we use σ = −�0 ∂Φ ∂n ∣∣∣∣ S = �0 ∂Φ ∂z ∣∣∣∣ z=a where the normal pointing away from the top conductor is n̂ = −ẑ. This is what accounts for the sign flip in the above. Substituting in (17) gives σ = 16�0V πa ∑ n,m odd √ n2 +m2 nm tanh( √ n2 +m2 π/2) sin (nπx a ) sin (mπy a ) 65 The functions { Um(φ) = Am sin ( mπφ β )} with integer m and arbitrary non-zero constants Am form a com- plete orthogonal set on the interval 0 ≤ φ ≤ β with Dirichlet BC. Note the analogy of these functions with the complete set of eigenfunctions of a quantum particle in an infinitely deep square well. Consider the expansion of a function f(φ) satisfying Dirichlet BC, f(φ) = ∑∞ m=1 amUm(φ) with coefficients am, multiply both sides with Um′(φ) and integrate over φ: ∫ β 0 f(φ)Am′ sin ( m′πφ β ) dφ = ∞∑ m=1 amAmAm′ ∫ β 0 f(φ) sin ( mπφ β ) sin ( m′πφ β ) dφ = am′A2m′ β 2 am = 2 βAm ∫ β 0 f(φ′) sin ( mπφ′ β ) dφ′ (15) where, for later convenience, we have switched the primes in the second line. Inserting this expression into the expansion of f(φ), f(φ) = ∞∑ m=1 { 2 βAm ∫ β 0 f(φ′) sin ( mπφ′ β ) dφ′ } Am sin ( mπφ β ) = ∫ β 0 { ∞∑ m=1 2 β sin ( mπφ′ β ) sin ( mπφ β )} f(φ′) dφ′ ∀φ Thus, ∞∑ m=1 2 β sin ( mπφ′ β ) sin ( mπφ β ) = δ(φ− φ′) , q.e.d.

In the comparison part of the problem, it is only required to compare the result of the finite-element method with the exact result. Y1 Y2 Y0 Y1 Y1 Y1 Y2 Y2 Y2 h=0.25 Figure 3: Finite element method for 2D square problem. For symmetry, it is sufficient to write down linear equations for the three encircled grid points of the figure, ∑ k Ψk ∫ V ∇φi · ∇φk dxdy ︸ ︷︷ ︸ = ρi²0 ∫ V φidxdy ︸ ︷︷ ︸ i = 0, 1, 2 ∑ k Ψk Aki = ρi ²0 h2 i = 0, 1, 2 (37) The first equation is Eq. 2.80 in the textbook, except that for simplicity we use only one index k instead of k and l, and we use i instead of i and j. The Aki are 8/3, -1/3 or 0 according to the rules explained in the textbook (see, for instance, Problem 2.29). The sum over k includes, in principle, the boundary nodes. However, since the boundary is on zero potential, in the present problem the sums do not explicitly show boundary points. Also, when writing down the sums we employ the fact that due to symmetry the potentials on many nodes are equal (see figure). Further, ρi is constant and equals ρ.

The solution is Ψ0 = 2970a, Ψ1 = 9 28a and Ψ2 = 9 35a. For a charge density of unity and h = 0.25, we find the following numerical values listed under F.E.M.: × F.E.M.

Considering the roughness of the grid, the accuracy achieved by the finite element method (F.E.M.) is good. In contrast to the iteration methods, which require many iterations to converge to a final result, the F.E.M. yields its final result after only a single calculation. In larger problems, the complexity of the F.E.M. calculation rapidly increases with the number of grid points, while iteration methods remain very simple. 68 The system is picturedin the following figure: ∫ 0 1 Plxdx The problem is symmetric around the z axis so φr,θ = ∑ l A lr l + B lr−l−1 Plcosθ The A l and B l are determined by the conditions 1) ∫ −1 1 φa,xPlxdx = 22l + 1 A la l + B la−l−1 2) ∫ −1 1 φb,xPlxdx = 22l + 1 A lb l + B lb−l−1 Solving these two equations gives A l = 2l + 1 2a2l+1 − b2l+1 a l+1 ∫ −1 1 φa,xPlxdx − b l+1 ∫ −1 1 φb,xPlxdx B l = a l+1 2l + 12 ∫−1 1 φa,xPlxdx − A la2l+1 Using ∫ −1 1 φa,xPlxdx = V ∫ 0 1 Plxdx ∫ −1 1 φb,xPlxdx = V ∫ −1 0 Plxdx = V−1 l ∫ 0 1 Plxdx So A l = 2l + 1 2a2l+1 − b2l+1 Va l+1 − b l+1−1 l ∫ 0 1 Plxdx B l = a l+1 2l + 12 V ∫ 0 1 Plxdx − A la2l+1 3.1 69 Note that ∫ 0 1 Plxdx = 12 ∫−1 1 Plxdx for l even. For even l ∑ 0, ∫ 0 1 Plxdx = 0. Thus we have ∫ 0 1 P0xdx = 1; ∫ 0 1 P1xdx = 12 , ∫ 0 1 P3xdx = − 18 and A0 = V2 , A1 = 3 4a3 − b3 Va2 + b2 , A3 = − 7 16a7 − b7 Va4 + b4 B0 = 12 Va − 1 2 Va = 0 B1 = 34 a2V − 3 4a3 − b3 Va2 + b2 a3 = 3 4 Va2b2 b + a −a3 + b3 B3 = − 716 a4V − a7 − 7 16a7 − b7 Va4 + b4 = − 7 16 Va4b4 b 3 + a3 −a7 + b7 As b → ∞, only the B l terms (and A0 survive. Thus using the general expression for ∫ 0 1 Plxdx given by (3.26) φr,θ = V 2 P0x + 32 a3 r2 P1x − 78 a4 r4 P3x +. . . . . Let’s now solve the problem neglecting the outer sphere (since b → ∞ using the Green’s function result (2.19) this integral give, for cosθ = 1 φr,θ = V 2 1 − ρ2 1 1 − ρ − 1 1 + ρ2 with ρ = a/r. Expanding the above, φr,θ = V 2 a r + 3 2 a2 r2 − 7 8 a4 r4 +. . . . . . Comparing with our previous solution with x = 1, we see the Green’s function solution differs by having a B0 term and by not having an A0 term. All the other higher power terms agree in the series. This difference is due to having a potential at ∞ in the original problem. 70 3.2 71 72 73 3.3 74 75 Slice the sphere equally by n planes slicing through the z axis, subtending angle Δφ about this axis with the surface of each slice of the pie alternating as ±V. φr,θ,φ = > l,m A lmr lYl mθ,φ so A lm = 1 a l ∫ dΩYlmθ,φ∗φa,θ,φ Symmetries: A l−m = −1mA lm ∗ φr,θ,φ + 2Δφ = φr,θ,φ where Δφ = 2π 2n Thus m = ±n, and integral multiples thereof φ−r⃗ = −φr⃗, n = 1 φ−r⃗ = φr⃗, n > 1 Since PYl mθ,φ = −1 lYlmθ,φ Then l is odd for n = 1; l is even for n > 1 Thus we only have contributions of l ≥ n. Using A lm = 1 a l ∫ dΩYlmθ,φ∗φa,θ,φ The integral over φ can be done trivially, since the integrand is just e−imφ leaving the desired answer in terms of an integral over cosθ. n = 1 case: I am going to keep only the lowest novanishing terms, involving A11 and A1−1. φ = rA11Y11 + A1−1Y1−1 = rA11Y11 + A11Y11 ∗ = 2r ReA11Y11 Y1 1 = − 3 8π 1 − x21/2e iφ A11 = − 1a 3 8π V ∫ −1 1 1 − x21/2dx ∫ 0 π e−iφdφ − ∫ π 2π e−iφdφ 3.4 76 A11 = 2iπa 3 8π V φ = 2r Re 2iπa 3 8π V − 3 8π sinθe iφ = 3r 2a Vsinθ sinφ From the figure we see sinθ sinφ = cosθ ′ So φ = 3r 2a Vcosθ ′ = V 3 2 r a P1cosθ ′ +. . . . . . The other terms, for l = 2,3, can be obtained in the same way in agreement with the result of (3.36) 77 3.6 78 79 3.7 80 81 3.9 82 83 This problem is described by a) From the class notes Φρ, z,φ = ∑ nν Anν sinνφ + Bnν cosνφIν nπρ L sin nπz L where Anν = 2πL 1 Iν nπbL ∫ 0 L ∫ 0 2π Vφ, z sin nπa L sinνφdφdz, ν ∑ 0 Bnν = 2πL 1 Iν nπbL ∫ 0 L ∫ 0 2π Vφ, z sin nπa L cosνφdφdz, ν Φ 0 Bnν = 1πL 1 Iν nπbL ∫ 0 L ∫ 0 2π Vφ, z sin nπa L dφdz, ν = 0 Noting ∫ − π2 π 2 sinνφdφ − ∫ π 2 3π 2 sinνφdφ = 0 we conclude Anν = 0. Similarly, noting ∫ − π2 π 2 cosνφdφ − ∫ π 2 3π 2 cosνφdφ = 4−1 m 2m + 1 , m = 0,1,2, . . . . where I’ve recognized that ν must be odd, ie, ν = 2m + 1. Also ∫ 0 L sin nπz L dz = 2 2l + 1π , l = 0,1,2, . . . . . where again I’ve recognized that n must be odd, ie, n = 2l + 1. Thus Bnν = 16−1mV π2I2m+1 nπbL 2l + 12m + 1 b) Now z = L/2, L ∑∑ b, L ∑∑ ρ. Then from the class notes 3.10 84 I2m+1 2l + 1πρ L 1 Γ2m + 2 2l + 1πρ 2L m+1 Also sin 2l + 1π L = −1 l so Φρ, z,φ = ∑ l,m 16−1 l+mV π22l + 12m + 1 ρ b 2m+1 cos2m + 1φ Using tan−1x = ∑ l=0 ∞ x2l+1 1l + 1 −1 l π 4 = tan−11 = ∑ l=0 ∞ −1 l 2l + 1 so Φρ, z,φ = 4Vπ ∑ m −1m 2m + 1 ρ b 2m+1 cos2m + 1φ Remembering from problem 2.13 that ∑ m −1m 2m + 1 ρ b 2m+1 cos2m + 1φ = 1 2 tan−1 2 ρ b cosφ 1 − ρ 2 b2 we find Φρ, z,φ = 2Vπ tan −1 2 ρ b cosφ 1 − ρ 2 b2 which is the answer for problem 2.13. 85 3.12 86 87 3.13 Solve for the potential in Problem 3.1, using the appropriate Green function obtained in the text, and verify that the answer obtained in this way agrees with the direct solution from the differential equation. Recall that Problem 3.1 asks for the potential between two concentric spheres of radii a and b (with b > a), where the upper hemisphere of the inner sphere and the lower hemisphere of the outer sphere are maintained at potential V , and where the other hemispheres are at zero potential. Since this problem involves the potential between two spheres, we use the Dirichlet Green’s function G(~x, ~x ′) = ∑ l,m 4π 2l + 1 1 1− ( a b )2l+1 (rl< − a2l+1rl+1< )( 1 rl+1> − rl> b2l+1 ) Y ml (Ω)Y m ∗ l (Ω ′) (1) Because there are no charges between the spheres, the Green’s function solution for the potential only involves the surface integral Φ(~x ) = − 1 4π ∫ S Φ(~x ′) ∂G ∂n′ da′ Here, we note a subtlety in that the boundary surface is actually disconnected, and includes both the inner sphere of radius a and the outer sphere of radius b. This means that the potential may be written as a sum of two contributions Φ(~x ) = − 1 4π ∫ r′=a Φ(~x ′) ∂G ∂n′ a2dΩ′ − 1 4π ∫ r′=b Φ(~x ′) ∂G ∂n′ b2dΩ′ (2) We now compute the normal derivatives of the Green’s function (1) ∂G ∂n′ ∣∣∣ r′=a = −∂G ∂r′ ∣∣∣ r<=r′=a = = −4π a2 ∑ l,m 1 1− ( a b )2l+1 [(ar)l+1 − (ab)l+1 (rb)l ] Y ml (Ω)Y m ∗ l (Ω ′) and ∂G ∂n′ ∣∣∣ r′=b = ∂G ∂r′ ∣∣∣ r>=r′=b = = −4π b2 ∑ l,m 1 1− ( a b )2l+1 [(rb)l − (ab)l (ar)l+1 ] Y ml (Ω)Y m ∗ l (Ω ′) 88 Inserting these expressions into (2) yields Φ(~x ) = ∑ l,m [∫ Va(Ω′)Y m ∗l (Ω ′)dΩ′ ] 1 1− ( a b )2l+1 [(ar)l+1 − (ab)l+1 (rb)l ] Y ml (Ω) + ∑ l,m [∫ Vb(Ω′)Y m ∗l (Ω ′)dΩ′ ] 1 1− ( a b )2l+1 [(rb)l − (ab)l (ar)l+1 ] Y ml (Ω) This is the general expression for the solution to the boundary value problem where Va(Ω) is the potential on the inner sphere and Vb(Ω) is the potential on the outer sphere. For the upper/lower hemispheres problem, we note that azimuthal symmetry allows us to restrict the m values to m = 0 only. In this case, the spherical harmonic expansion reduces to a Legendre polynomial expansion Φ(~x ) = ∑ l [∫ 1 −1 Va(ζ)Pl(ζ)dζ ] 2l + 1 2 ( 1− ( a b )2l+1) [(ar)l+1 − (ab)l+1 (rb)l ] Pl(cos θ) + ∑ l [∫ Vb(ζ)Pl(ζ)dζ ] 2l + 1 2 ( 1− ( a b )2l+1) [(rb)l − (ab)l (ar)l+1 ] Pl(cos θ) where ζ = cos θ′. Since Va = V for ζ > 0 and Vb = V for ζ < 0, this above expression reduces to Φ(~x ) = ∑ l (2l + 1)V Nl 2 ( 1− ( a b )2l+1) [(ar)l+1 − (ab)l+1 (rb)l ] Pl(cos θ) + ∑ l (2l + 1)(−1)lV Nl 2 ( 1− ( a b )2l+1) [(rb)l − (ab)l (ar)l+1 ] Pl(cos θ) = ∑ l (2l + 1)V Nl 2 ( 1− ( a b )2l+1)[((ar)l+1 − (ab)l+1 (rb)l ) + (−1)l ((r b )l − (a b )l (a r )l+1)] Pl(cos θ) where Nl = ∫ 1 0 Pl(ζ)dζ = { 1 l = 0 (−1)j+1 Γ(j − 12 ) 2 √ πj! l = 2j − 1 odd 89 If desired, the potential may be rearranged to read Φ(~x ) = ∑ l (2l + 1)V Nl 2 ( 1− ( a b )2l+1)[(1 + (−1)l+1 (ab)l )(a r )l+1 + (−1)l ( 1 + (−1)l+1 (a b )l+1)(r b )l] Pl(cos θ) = V 2 + V ∞∑ j=1 (−1)j+1(4j − 1)Γ(j − 12 ) 4 √ πj! ( 1− ( a b )4j−1) [( 1 + (a b )2j−1)(a r )2j − ( 1 + (a b )2j)(r b )2j−1] P2j−1(cos θ) which agrees with the solution to Problem 3.1 that wehave found earlier. 90 3.14 wsD qY� }B��t�$sj $tR$I� $R �$%�t Ak wn�D ) d ;$6( 8 ~ 'wn�IDtwn�, n�IDQ+ I � d ;$ - wy, �I, *ID (t (zI QyI 7$t{� �Y� R}Y��� $R ��BZtI�I� �Y� }B��t�$sj Bt �Y� RZ�Ps{� wy, �I, *ID ) (� qY� p���t PZt{�$Bt PB� $tR$I� �Y� R}Y��� twn�, n�ID ) 3 f)( f3 E)�f ;$ 1f Ld \ �fc �fLdk � �f�If K1fLd iV fEw� I, *IDVfEw�,*D VR �Y� ��RZj� BP s9$8Z�Ysj Rk88���k� E ) (� �Y� p���t PZt{�$Bt $R R$8}j$h�IU twn�, n�ID ) 3 f)( \ �fc �fLdk � �f�If K1fLd ihfw{BR �Dhfw{BR � ID qB }�B{��I PZ��Y��� Bt� t��IR �B h�Z�� BZ� �Y� {Ys��� I�tR$�k 'w�, �, *D� 7$t{� �Y� I�tR$�k $R tBtT9��B Btjk sjBt� �Y� F�s-$R stI R$t{� $� $R $t%s�$st� ZtI�� F ��F� �Y� {Ys��� I�tR$�k 8ZR� BP �Y� PB�8U 'wn�D � &w{BR � � dD L &w{BR � LdD 3Z��Y��8B��� R$t{� �Y� {Ys��� I�tR$�k %st$RY�R PB� F1 k Q1� 'wn�D � �wQ� �D bY��� �w?D $R s R��} PZt{�$Bt� $��� �w?D ) d $P ? k ( stI �w?D ) ( $P ? c (� qY���PB��� 'w�, �, *D ) Ww�D�wQ� �D\&w{BR � � dD L &w{BR � LdDi 7$t{� �Y� j$t�s� {Ys��� I�tR$�k %s�$�R sR Q1 � F1 sjBt� �Y� F stI �Y� �B�sj {Ys��� $R +� Bt� ���R �Y� j$t�s� {Ys��� I�tR$�k sjBt� �Y� 9 sRU 'FwFD ) gwQ 1 � F1D, 8 Q �Q 'FwFDQF ) <, p g ) n< ;Qn , 'FwFD ) n< ;Qn wQ1 � F1D qY� {Ys��� $t s R}Y��${sj RY�jj BP �sI$ZR �wc QD stI �Y${,t�RR Q�U 1'FwFDQF/F)� ) 8 1$ ( Q* 8 $ ( R$t �Q�'w�, �, *Dw�1Q�D qY� sAB%� �JZs�$Bt j�sIR �B Ww�D ) n< M$Qn Q1 � �1 �1 qY���PB��� �Y� {Ys��� I�tR$�k $tR$I� �Y� R}Y��� 'wn�D ) n< M$Qn Q1 � �1 �1 �wQ� �D\&w{BR �� dD L &w{BR � L dDi qY� }B��t�$sj $tR$I� �Y� R}Y��� wn�D ) d ;$6( 8 'wn�IDtwn�, n�IDQ+ I ) d ;$6( n< M$Qn 3 f)( hfw{BR �D N 1$ N \hfwdD L hfw�dDi N 8 Q ( Q1 � �I1 �I1 F �fc �fLdk � �f�If K1fLd k �I1Q�I 91 ) n< dE$6(Qn 3 f)( \d L w�dDfihfw{BR �D 8 Q ( wQ1 � �I1D F �fc �fLdk � �f�If K1fLd k Q�I 3B� � k QU wn�D ) n< dE$6(Qn 3 f)( \d L w�dDfihfw{BR �D 8 Q ( wQ1 � �I1D F �fc �fLdk � �f�If K1fLd k Q�I ) n< dE$6(Qn 3 f)( \d L w�dDfihfw{BR �D 8 Q ( wQ1 � �I1D F �If �fLd � �f�If K1fLd k Q�I ) n< dE$6(Qn 3 f)( \d L w�dDfihfw{BR �D 1QfLn wfL dDwfL nD F d �fLd � �f K1fLd k ) n< ;$6( 3 z)( h1zw{BR �D Q1z w1zL dDw1zLnD F d �1zLd � �1z K;zLd k qY� $t����sj PB� �Y� {sR� BP � c Q $R 8�RR$�� stI tB t��I �B �%sjZs�� $�� wAD qY� RZ�Ps{� {Ys��� I�tR$�k � ) �6(o�/�)K ) 6( ( (� /�)K ) � n< ;$ 3 z)( ;z Ld w1zLdDw1zL nD h1zw{BR �D Q1z K1zL1 w{D yt �Y� j$8$� BP Q� (U wn�Dp n< ;$6( h(w{BR �D d n w d � � d K D ) < ;$6( w d � � d K D qY$R $R �Y� h�jI $tR$I� s ��BZtI�I R}Y��� IZ� �B s }B$t� {Ys��� + s� �Y� B�$�$t� qY� RZ�Ps{� {Ys��� I�tR$�k � p� n< ;$ d n d K1 ) � < ;$K1 qY� RZ�Ps{� {Ys��� $R Zt$PB�8jk I$R��$AZ��I $t �Y$R {sR�� 92 3.17 To demonstrate the general method, this problem is worked out in a verbose manner. Preparation: We use the completeness (=closure) relations δ(φ− φ′) = 1 2π ∞∑ m=−∞ exp(−imφ′) exp(imφ) δ(z − z′) = 2 L ∞∑ n=1 sin (nπz L ) sin ( nπz′ L ) δ(ρ− ρ′) ρ′ = ∫ ∞ k=0 kJm(kρ′)Jm(kρ)dk ∀m , (1) where the last one is obtained by treating Eq. 3.108 in the textbook with the replacements explained after Eq. 3.112. In doubt, for any complete set of functions with given orthogonality relation the appropriate closure relation can be obtained using the procedure outlined in class. The procedure is demonstrated again in the following: Completeness of the set {Jm(kρ), k ∈ [0,∞[ ,m fixed } ⇒ any f(ρ) can be expanded as f(ρ) = ∫ ∞ k=0 A(k)Jm(kρ)dk (2) Obtain expansion coefficient function A(k) using the orthogonality relation Eq. 3.108 of the textbook: ∫ ∞ ρ=0 f(ρ)Jm(k′ρ)ρdρ = ∫ ∞ k=0 A(k) ∫ ∞ ρ=0 Jm(kρ)Jm(k′ρ)ρdρdk ∫ ∞ ρ=0 f(ρ)Jm(k′ρ)ρdρ = ∫ ∞ k=0 A(k) 1 k δ(k − k′)dk A(k′) = k′ ∫ ∞ ρ=0 f(ρ)Jm(kρ)ρdρ To simplify writing in what follows, swap primes from k to ρ: A(k) = k ∫ ∞ ρ=0 f(ρ′)Jm(kρ′)ρ′dρ′ Insert into Eq. 2: f(ρ) = ∫ ∞ k=0 k ∫ ∞ ρ=0 f(ρ′)Jm(kρ′)ρ′dρ′Jm(kρ)dk 93 f(ρ) = ∫ ∞ ρ=0 {∫ ∞ k=0 kJm(kρ′)Jm(kρ)dk } ρ′f(ρ′)dρ′ From the last line, it is obvious that δ(ρ− ρ′) ρ′ = ∫ ∞ k=0 kJm(kρ′)Jm(kρ)dk ∀m a): Obtain given expansion of Green’s function. Step 1: Write down Equation for Green’s function with δ-function in cylindrical coordinates, ∆G(x,x′) = −4πδ(x− x′) = −4π δ(ρ− ρ ′) ρ′ δ(φ− φ′)δ(z − z′) Step 2: On right side, use completeness relations for two out of the three δ-functions. From the given result, we suspect that we need to use the completeness relations for δ(z − z′) and δ(φ− φ′): ∆G(x,x′) = − 4 L ∞∑ m=−∞ ∞∑ n=1 exp(−imφ′) exp(imφ) sin ( nπz′ L ) sin (nπz L ) δ(ρ− ρ′) ρ′ ∆G(x,x′) = ∞∑ m=−∞ ∞∑ n=1 { − 4 L exp(−imφ′) sin ( nπz′ L ) δ(ρ− ρ′) ρ′ } exp(imφ) sin (nπz L ) (3) Step 3: On left side, expand the Green’s function using the orthogonal function sets that have also been used in Step 2. Note that x′ only enters as a parameter of the calculation; ∆ acts on x. ∆G(x,x′) = ∆ ∞∑ m=−∞ ∞∑ n=1 exp(imφ) sin (nπz L ) Amn(ρ|ρ′, z′, φ′) Step 4: Write Laplacian in the proper coordinates and take derivatives of the orthogonal functions: ∆G(x,x′) = ∞∑ m=−∞ ∞∑ n=1 {[ 1 ρ d dρ ρ d dρ − m 2 ρ2 − n 2π2 L2 ] Amn(ρ|ρ′, z′, φ′) } exp(imφ) sin (nπz L ) (4) Step 5: Expansions in orthogonal sets of functions are unique. Thus, we can separately equate the co- efficients of the exp(imφ) sin ( nπz L ) in Eq. 3 and Eq. 4. Dividing by exp(−imφ′) sin ( nπz′ L ) and using Dρ = [ 1 ρ d dρ ρ d dρ − m 2 ρ2 − n 2π2 L2 ] as abbreviation for the involved linear differential operator in ρ, we find Dρ { Amn(ρ|ρ′, z′, φ′) exp(−imφ′) sin (nπz′L ) } = − 4 L δ(ρ− ρ′) ρ′ 94 Step 6: Noticing that the expression in the curly brackets of the last equation can only depend on the parameters of Dρ (which are m and n), on ρ and on ρ′, we define the reduced Green’s function gmn(ρ, ρ′) = Amn(ρ|ρ′, z′, φ′) exp(−imφ′) sin (nπz′L ) and proceed to solve [ 1 ρ ∂ ∂ρ ρ ∂ ∂ρ − m 2 ρ2 − n 2π2 L2 ] gmn(ρ, ρ′) = − 4 L δ(ρ− ρ′) ρ′ (5) Inspection of Eq. 3.98ff of the textbook shows that the differential equation is the modified Bessel differ- ential equation (except the δ-function inhomogeneity), and that the linearly independent solutions of the homogeneous equation are Im(kρ) and Km(kρ), with k = nπL . In the domain ρ < ρ ′ only Im(kρ) is regular, while in the domain ρ > ρ′ only Km(kρ) is regular. Thus, for the reduced Green’s function to be regular, symmetric in ρ and ρ′, and continuous at ρ = ρ′, it must be of the form gmn(ρ, ρ′) = C Im(kρ<) Km(kρ>) , with a constant C to be determined to match the inhomogeneity. Also, ρ< = min(ρ, ρ′) and ρ> = max(ρ, ρ′). Step 7: Find C. Integrating Eq. 5 from ρ′ − ² to ρ′ + ² with ² → 0 and dropping vanishing terms we find d dρ gmn(ρ, ρ′)|ρ=ρ′+² − d dρ gmn(ρ, ρ′)|ρ=ρ′−² = − 4 ρ′L The left side equals C k W [Im(x), Km(x)] with x = kρ′ and the Wronski determinant W = Im(x) ( d dxKm(x) ) − ( ddxIm(x) ) Km(x). The Wronsky determinant can be evaluated in the asymptotic re- gion, where both Im(x) and Km(x) have simple forms given in Eqs. 3.102ff of the textbook, leading to W [Im(x),Km(x)] = − 1x (see Eq. 3.147 in textbook). We thus find −Ck 1 x = −Ck 1 kρ′ = − 4 ρ′L and therfore C = 4L . Step 8: Going backward through all steps, the Green’s function expansion is assembled into the final result: gmn(ρ, ρ′) = 4 L Im(kρ<) Km(kρ>) , Amn(ρ|ρ′, z′, φ′) = 4 L Im(kρ<)Km(kρ>) exp(−imφ′) sin ( nπz′ L ) 95 and, using k = nπL , G(x,x′) = 4 L ∞∑ m=−∞ ∞∑ n=1 exp(−imφ′) exp(imφ) sin ( nπz′ L ) sin (nπz L ) Im( nπ L ρ<) Km( nπ L ρ>) , q.e.d. b: Step 1: Write down Equation for Green’s function with δ-function in cylindrical coordinates, ∆G(x,x′) = −4πδ(x− x′) = −4π δ(ρ− ρ ′) ρ′ δ(φ− φ′)δ(z − z′) Step 2: Use completeness relations for δ(ρ−ρ ′) ρ′ and δ(φ− φ′): ∆G(x,x′) = −2 ∞∑ m=−∞ ∫ ∞ k=0 exp(−imφ′) exp(imφ) Jm(kρ) Jm(kρ′)δ(z − z′) k dk ∆G(x,x′) = ∞∑ m=−∞ ∫ ∞ k=0 {−2k exp(−imφ′)Jm(kρ′)δ(z − z′)} exp(imφ) Jm(kρ) dk (6) Step 3: Expand the Green’s function using the orthogonal functionsets that have also been used in Step 2. ∆G(x,x′) = ∆ ∞∑ m=−∞ ∫ ∞ k=0 exp(imφ) Jm(kρ) Amk(z|ρ′, z′, φ′)dk Step 4: Write Laplacian in the proper coordinates and take the obvious derivatives of the orthogonal func- tions: ∆G(x,x′) = ∞∑ m=−∞ ∫ ∞ k=0 [ ∂2 ∂z2 − m 2 ρ2 + 1 ρ ∂ ∂ρ ρ ∂ ∂ρ ] exp(imφ) Jm(kρ) Amk(z|ρ′, z′, φ′)dk The ordinary Bessel diff. equation reads [ −m2ρ2 + 1ρ ∂∂ρρ ∂∂ρ ] Jm(kρ) = −k2Jm(kρ), and thus: ∆G(x,x′) = ∞∑ m=−∞ ∫ ∞ k=0 {[ d2 dz2 − k2 ] Amk(z|ρ′, z′, φ′) } exp(imφ) Jm(kρ)dk (7) Step 5: We equate coefficients in Eqs. 6 and Eq. 7. Dividing by exp(−imφ′) Jm(kρ′) we find [ d2 dz2 − k2 ]{ Amk(z|ρ′, z′, φ′) exp(−imφ′)Jm(kρ′) } = −2k δ(z − z′) Step 6: Noting that the expression in the curly brackets of the last equation can only depend on k, z and z′, we define the reduced Green’s function 96 gk(z, z′) = Amk(z|ρ′, z′, φ′) exp(−imφ′)Jm(kρ′) and proceed to solve [ d2 dz2 − k2 ] gk(z, z′) = −2k δ(z − z′) A reduced Green’s function that matches the boundary conditions at z = 0 and z = L, that is symmetric in z and z′ and that is continuous at z = z′ must be of the form gk(z, z′) = C sinh(k z<) sinh(k (L− z>)) , where the constant C needs to be determined to match the inhomogeneity at z = z′. Also, z< = min(z, z′) and z> = max(z, z′). Step 7: Find C. Integrating the differential equation for gk(z, z′) from z′−² to z′+² with ² → 0 and dropping vanishing terms we find d dz gk(z, z′)|z=z′+² − d dz gk(z, z′)|z=z′−² = −2k Direct calculation yields d dz gk(z, z′)|z=z′+² − d dz gk(z, z′)|z=z′−² = −kC [sinh(kz′) cosh(k (L− z>)) + cosh(kz′) sinh(k (L− z>))] = −kC sinh(kL) and thus, with the equation before, C = 2sinh(kL) . Step 8: Going backward through all steps, the Greens function expansion is assembled into the final result G(x,x′) = 2 ∞∑ m=−∞ ∫ ∞ k=0 exp(−imφ′) exp(imφ) Jm(kρ) Jm(kρ′) sinh(k z<) sinh(k (L− z>))sinh(kL) dk , q.e.d. 97 3.22 qY� p���t PZt{�$Bt tw',*�'I, *ID $R �Y� RBjZ�$Bt BP �Y� PBjjBb$t� _B$RRBt �JZs�$BtU n1t ) �;$&nwn� � n�ID ) � ;$ ' &w'� 'ID&w*� *ID 3�B8 �Y� ��RZj�R BP _�BAj�8 1�1;� PB� * W) *I� �Y� st�Zjs� RBjZ�$Bt <w*D $R BP �Y� PB�8 <Ew*D � R$twE$*b#D stI �Y� PZt{�$BtR R$twE$*b#D s�� {B8}j���U &w*� *ID ) 1 # 3 E)d R$twE$*b#D R$twE$*Ib#D qY���PB��� n1tw', *� 'I, *ID ) � M$ '# &w'� 'ID 3 E)d R$twE$*b#D R$twE$*Ib#D e-}stI$t� �Y� p���t PZt{�$Bt $t ���8R BP R$twE$*b#D R$twE$*Ib#DU tw',*�'I, *ID ) 3 E)d /Ew', ' ID R$twE$*b#D R$twE$*Ib#D 98 stI }jZ��$t� $t�B �Y� sAB%� _B$RRBt �JZs�$BtU d ' ( (' w' (/E (' D� d '1 w E$ # D1 ) � M$ #' &w'� 'ID 3B� ' W) 'I� �Y� sAB%� �JZs�$Bt ��IZ{�R �B �Y� �sI$sj �JZs�$Bt BP �Y� _B$RRBt �JZs�$Bt $t ]kj$tI�${sj {BB�I$ts��R b$�YBZ� F�I�}�tI�t{�� stI �Y� �bB $tI�}�tI�t� RBjZ�$BtR s�� 'E$b# stI '�E$b# U /Ew', ' ID ) \E' E$b# L 4E 'E$b# 3B� ' c 'I� �Y� ABZtIs�k {BtI$�$Bt /Ew'� (, 'ID ) ( j�sIR �B 4E ) (, /Ew', ' ID ) \Ew' ID'E$b# 3B� ' k 'I� �Y� ABZtIs�k {BtI$�$Bt /Ew' ) y, 'ID ) ( j�sIR �B \E ) � 4E y1E$b# , /Ew', ' ID ) 4Ew' ID F d 'E$b# � 'E$b# y1E$b# k WB�� �Ys� �Y� �sI$sj PZt{�$Bt /Ew', 'ID $R $t%s�$st� ZtI�� '� 'I� �Y$R $R Btjk }BRR$Aj� $P /E ) gE' E$b# c l d ' E$b# k � ' E$b# k y1E$b# M bY��� 'k ) 8s-w', ' ID� 'c ) 8$tw', ' ID stI gE:R s�� {BtR�st�R $tI�}�tI�t� BP ' stI ' I� yt����s�$t� �Y� sAB%� �sI$sj �JZs�$BtU 8 'IL6 'I�6 Q' F d ' ( (' w' (/E (' D� d '1 w E$ # D1 k ) � 8 'IL6 'I�6 M$ #' &w'� 'IDQ' stI j���$t� 6� (U (/E (' /'I L � (/E (' /'I � ) � M$ #'I e%sjZs�$t� �Y� sAB%� �JZs�$BtU �gE d 'I E$ # \d L w 'I y D1E$b#i � gE d 'I E$ # \d� w 'I y D1E$b#i ) � M$ #'I qY���PB��� gE ) ;bE stI �Y� �sI$sj PZt{�$BtU /Ew', ' ID ) ; E ' E$b# c l d ' E$b# k � ' E$b# k y1E$b# M ]B8A$t$t� �sI$sj stI st�Zjs� RBjZ�$BtR� b� ��� �Y� p���t PZt{�$BtU tw',*�'I, *ID ) 3 E)d ; E ' E$b# c l d ' E$b# k � ' E$b# k y1E$b# M R$tw E$* # D R$tw E$*I # D 99 3.23 Hint: Use Green’s function expansion techniques. For the second line, note Eq. 3.147. We use the completeness relations δ(φ− φ′) = 1 2π ∞∑ m=−∞ exp(−imφ′) exp(imφ) δ(z − z′) = 2 L ∞∑ n=1 sin (nπz L ) sin ( nπz′ L ) δ(ρ− ρ′) ρ′ = ∞∑ n=1 2 a2J2m+1(xmn) Jm(xmn ρ a )Jm(xmn ρ′ a ) ∀m . (8) a): Step 1: Write down Equation for Green’s function with δ-function in cylindrical coordinates, ∆G(x,x′) = −4πδ(x− x′) = −4π δ(ρ− ρ ′) ρ′ δ(φ− φ′)δ(z − z′) Step 2: We use the completeness relations for δ(φ− φ′) and δ(ρ−ρ′)ρ′ to write: ∆G(x,x′) = ∞∑ m=−∞ ∞∑ n=1 { − 4 a2J2m+1(xmn) exp(−imφ′) Jm(xmn ρ ′ a ) δ(z − z′) } exp(imφ) Jm(xmn ρ a ) (9) Step 3: Expansion of the Green’s function in exp(imφ) Jm(xmn ρa ): ∆G(x,x′) = ∆ ∞∑ m=−∞ ∞∑ n=1 exp(imφ) Jm( xmn a ρ)Amn(z|ρ′, z′, φ′) Step 4: Apply Laplacian: ∆G(x,x′) = ∞∑ m=−∞ ∞∑ n=1 [ ∂2 ∂z2 − m 2 ρ2 + 1 ρ ∂ ∂ρ ρ ∂ ∂ρ ] exp(imφ) Jm( xmn a ρ)Amn(z|ρ′, z′, φ′) The ordinary Bessel differential equation reads, in the present case, [ 1 ρ ∂ ∂ρρ ∂ ∂ρ − m 2 ρ2 ] Jm(xmna ρ) = − (xmna )2 Jm(xmna ρ), and thus: ∆G(x,x′) = ∞∑ m=−∞ ∞∑ n=1 {[ d2 dz2 − (xmn a )2] Amn(z|ρ′, z′, φ′) } exp(imφ) Jm( xmn a ρ) (10) Step 5: We equate coefficients in Eqs. 9 and Eq. 10. Dividing by − 4 a2J2 m+1(xmn) exp(−imφ′)Jm(kρ′) yields 100 [ d2 dz2 − (xmn a )2] gmn(z, z′) = δ(z − z′) with the reduced Green’s function gmn(z, z′) = − a2 J2m+1(xmn)Amn(z|ρ′, z′, φ′) 4 exp(−imφ′)Jm(xmna ρ′) Step 6: A reduced Green’s function that matches the boundary conditions at z = 0 and z = L, that is symmetric in z and z′ and that is continuous at z = z′ must be of the form gmn(z, z′) = C sinh( xmn a z<) sinh( xmn a (L− z>)) , where the constant C needs to be determined to match the inhomogeneity at z = z′. Also, z< = min(z, z′) and z> = max(z, z′). Step 7: Find C. Integrating the differential equation for gmn(z, z′) from z′ − ² to z′ + ² with ² → 0 and dropping vanishing terms we find d dz gmn(z, z′)|z=z′+² − d dz gmn(z, z′)|z=z′−² = 1 Direct calculation similar to Problem 3.17 b) yields C = − a xmn sinh(xmnLa ) . Step 8: Going backward through all steps, the Greens function expansion is assembled into G(x,x′) = 4 a ∞∑ m=−∞ ∞∑ n=1 exp(−imφ′) exp(imφ) Jm(xmn a ρ) Jm( xmn a ρ′) sinh(xmna z<) sinh( xmn a (L− z>)) xmn J2m+1(xmn) sinh( xmnL a ) . The potential of a point charge q at x′ follows from its charge density, ρ(x′′) = qδ(x′′ − x′), and Φ(x,x′) = 1 4π²0 ∫ V ρ(x′′)G(x,x′′)d3x′′ = q 4π²0 ∫ V δ(x′′ − x′)G(x,x′′)d3x′′ = q 4π²0 G(x,x′) Thus, with the above obtained G(x,x′) it is Φ(x,x′) = q aπ²0 ∞∑ m=−∞ ∞∑ n=1 exp(−imφ′) exp(imφ) Jm(xmn a ρ) Jm( xmn a ρ′) sinh(xmna z<) sinh( xmn a (L− z>)) xmn J2m+1(xmn) sinh( xmnL a ) , q.e.d. 101 b): Step 1: Write down Equation for Green’s function with δ-function in cylindrical coordinates, ∆G(x,x′) = −4πδ(x− x′) = −4π δ(ρ− ρ ′) ρ′ δ(φ− φ′)δ(z − z′) Step 2: We use the completeness relations for δ(φ− φ′) and δ(z − z′) to write: ∆G(x,x′) = ∞∑ m=−∞ ∞∑ n=1 { − 4 L exp(−imφ′) sin ( nπz′ L ) δ(ρ− ρ′) ρ′ } exp(imφ) sin (nπz L ) (11) Step 3: Expansion of the Green’s function in exp(imφ) sin ( nπz L ) : ∆G(x,x′) = ∆ ∞∑ m=−∞ ∞∑ n=1 exp(imφ) sin (nπz L ) Amn(ρ|ρ′, z′, φ′) Step 4: Apply Laplacian: ∆G(x,x′) = ∞∑ m=−∞ ∞∑ n=1 {[ 1 ρ d dρ ρ d dρ − (nπ L )2 − m 2 ρ2 ] Amn(ρ|ρ′, z′, φ′) } exp(imφ) sin (nπz L ) (12) Step 5: We equate coefficients in Eqs. 11 and Eq. 12, and divide by − 4L exp(−imφ′) sin ( nπz′ L ) . We find [ 1 ρ d dρ ρ d dρ − (nπ L )2 − m 2 ρ2 ] gmn(ρ, ρ′) = δ(ρ− ρ′) ρ′ for the reduced Green’s function gmn(ρ, ρ′) = − L Amn(ρ|ρ ′, z′, φ′) 4 exp(−imφ′) sin (nπz′L ) Step 6: The differential equation for gmn is the modified Bessel equation (except the inhomogeneity). Thus, a reduced Green’s function that solves the homogeneous equation, is symmetric in ρ and ρ′, is continuous at ρ = ρ′, is regular at ρ = 0 and is vanishing at ρ = a must be of the form gmn(ρ, ρ′) = C Im( nπ L ρ<) ( Im( nπ L ρ>)− Im(nπaL ) Km(nπaL ) Km( nπ L ρ>) ) where
