  • Abstract
    It is shown that when the source coordinates (z´, t´) in a plane pulse field u-(z, t; z´, t´) propagating in a lossless plasma medium are assigned complex values, the resulting solution describes propagation of a Gaussian pulse. This observation provides a simple mechanism for generating Gaussian pulse fields from impulse-excited fields.
