Abstract :
An analytically simple and sufficiently accurate asymptotic solution for the eigenvalues of spherical surface waves in corrugated conical horns is described. An iterative procedure for numerical evaluation of the exact eigenvalues associated with the surface waves of the lowest order is presented here.
