[edit] Polarisation of a longitudinal wave
How can a longitudinal wave be polarized? Polarisation is defined with transversal waves only. So, a longitudinal electrical wave in air is hypothetic. 84.73.189.253 13:23, 25 April 2006 (UTC)
A simple google search seem to show that mathematically, it's impossible (aka., the equations are not correctly formed to demonstrae this). I think that the equations are considering a homogenous medium and not a hetrogenous medium. This page could help you on longitudinal wave (aka, surface waves) polarized ... http://www.tpub.com/content/neets/14182/css/14182_76.htm (now cited in page) 204.56.7.1 17:32, 31 May 2006 (UTC)
Removed sentence that referred to a standing wave as exhibiting longitudinal propagation - while it may have a longitudinal mode, propagation is as a transverse EM wave. Bert 13:27, 3 June 2006 (UTC)
The Zenneck wave is not a transverse wave. Restoring sentence. 204.56.7.1 17:11, 5 June 2006 (UTC)
