  • Abstract
    The high-frequency current distributions over several conducting elliptic cylinders for normal, plane-wave excitation are measured at a wavelength of 3.2 cm using image-plane techniques. The experimental distributions are compared with the Fock approximation, verifying its validity over a wide range of kR_{0} in the neighborhood of the shadow boundary.
