A Green's function for diffraction by a rational wedge

Abstract In this paper we derive an expression for the point source Green's function for the reduced wave equation, valid in an angular sector whose angle is equal to a rational multiple of π. This Green's function can be used to find new expressions for the field produced by the diffraction of a spherical wave by a wedge whose angle can be expressed as a rational multiple of π. The expressions obtained will be in the form of source terms and real integrals representing the diffracted field. The general result obtained is used to derive a new representation for the solution of the problem of diffraction by a mixed hard–soft half plane.
