| Abstract: | A study is made of the propagation of a discontinuity of the electromagnetic field in a magnet in a coaxial cable. The shape of a discontinuity of the electromagnetic field propagating along a magnet from a voltage source is found. Under the assumption of a small gap between coaxial, infinitely conducting cylinders, the field parameters behind the discontinuity are determined.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Mekhanika Zhidkosti i Gaza, No. 2, pp. 193–197, March–April, 1981.I thank A.
