Surfaces of discontinuity in a magnetized medium

Features of surfaces of discontinuity in a magnetized medium are considered. It is shown that the polarizing force at interfaces may be directed towards the medium with higher permittivity. It is proved that there exists in an absolutely conducting magnetized medium plane-polarizing discontinuities at which the density of the medium remains invariant.Translated from Zhurnal Prikladnoi Mekhaniki i Tekhnicheskoi Fiziki, No. 5, pp. 23–27, September–October, 1974.
