An illustration from The mathematical theory of electricity and magnetism, 1911, leaf 538
dary, as before, be the plane of yz, andlet the plane of incidence be supposed to be the plane of xy. Since thewave is supposed to be polarised in the plane of incidence, the magneticforce must be in the plane of xy, and the electric force must be parallel tothe axis of z. Hence for this wave,… … Fig. 137. The angle ^i is seen to be the angle of incidence of the wave, namely,the angle between its direction of propagation and the normal {Ox) to theboundary. Let us suppose that in the second medium there is a refracted wave,given by X=Y=0, Z = ^gJK2(«cos02 + 2/sine2-l^O0 — 0 gj/cj {x cosOi+y…
