6 Wave equation in spherical polar coordinates

6 Wave equation in spherical polar coordinates We now look at solving problems involving the Laplacian in spherical polar coordinates. The angular dependence of the solutions will be described by spherical harmonics. We take the wave equation as a special case: ∇2u = 1 c 2 ∂2u ∂t The Laplacian given by Eqn. (4.11) can be rewritten as: ∇ ...
