2d Fourier Transform Using Weyl Expansion

If we have electric field as $$ \mathbf{E}\left(\mathbf{r}_{\mathrm{d}}, t\right)=\frac{1}{\varepsilon} \int_{\mathcal{V}} d \mathbf{r}^{\prime} \mathbf{K}\left(\mathbf{r}_{\mathrm{d}}-\mathbf{r}^{\...

Existence conditions for integral transforms

Let's take the Fourier transform of Faraday's law of induction $$ \nabla \times E = - \partial_t B $$ $$ \mathcal{F}[\nabla \times E]\ = \mathcal{F}[- \partial_t B] $$ $$ \nabla \times \mathcal{F}[E]\ ...

Applying the Fourier transform to Maxwell's equations

I have the following Maxwell's equations: $$\nabla \times \mathbf{h} = \mathbf{j} + \epsilon_0 \dfrac{\partial{\mathbf{e}}}{\partial{t}} + \dfrac{\partial{\mathbf{p}}}{\partial{t}},$$ $$\nabla \...

Question on differential equations with $\delta(x)$

In a course of Electrodynamics I came across a function for electric susceptibility $\chi(\tau)$ given by: $$\frac{d^2\chi}{d\tau^2}+\gamma \frac{d\chi}{d\tau}+\omega_0^2\chi=\omega_p^2\delta(\tau)$$ ...

What is the relation between 2d Fourier Transform and Plane Waves? [closed]

I'm not understanding how the two was related, but I was told that the 2d Fourier Transform decomposes an electromagnetic signal into plane waves. This, however, I am not understanding. I thought it ...

Radial fourier transform of gaussians

In this paper is calculated the square modulus of the radial fourier transform of the function $\rho(r)$ $$\left|F(q)\right|^2=\left| \int_{\mathbb{R}^3} e^{i\mathbf{q}\cdot\mathbf{r}}\rho(\mathbf{r})...

Link of Wave equation to Helmhotz equation

$\nabla^{2}\mathbf{E}-\frac{1}{c^{2}}\mathbf{E}_{tt}=0 \tag{1}$ is equivalent to Helmhotz equation by the Fourier transformation i.e. $\tilde{E}_{zz}(z,w)+\epsilon(w)\frac{w^{2}}{c^{2}}\tilde{E}(z,...

Convolution type integral with two variables

Is there some canonical way to approach integrals of type $$ I(k,q) = \int {\rm d}^{3} s~ e^{i k \cdot s} f\left(|s|\right)g\left(|q-s|^2\right), $$ where $s$, $k$ and $q$ are momentum vectors, and ...
