  • Abstract
    The diffraction by a cylinder-tipped half-plane is analyzed by the geometrical theory of diffraction. When higher order terms are included in the solution it is shown to be valid for cylinders as small as a tenth of a wavelength in radius. This illustrates the highly local behavior of surface diffraction.
