  • Abstract
    Long wavelength response characteristics for the class of elliptical reproduce heads are calculated. Simple series solutions are obtained for a flat recorded medium, and numerical methods are used for a tape wrapped over the head at arbitrary contact angles. Special eccentricities of the ellipse yield classical results. Many geometries lead to low frequency bumps on the response curve.
