Sommerfeld radiation condition
Arnold Sommerfeld defined the condition of radiation for a scalar field satisfying the Helmholtz equation as
: "the sources must be sources, not sinks of energy. The energy which is radiated from the sources must scatter to infinity; no energy may be radiated from infinity into ... the field."〔A. Sommerfeld, ''Partial Differential Equations in Physics'', Academic Press, New York, New York, 1949.〕
Mathematically, consider the inhomogeneous Helmholtz equation
:
(\nabla^2 + k^2) u = -f \mbox \mathbb R^n

where n=2, 3 is the dimension of the space, f is a given function with compact support representing a bounded source of energy, and k>0 is a constant, called the ''wavenumber''. A solution u to this equation is called ''radiating'' if it satisfies the Sommerfeld radiation condition
: \lim_ |x|^} \left( \frac - ik \right) u(x) = 0
uniformly in all directions
:\hat = \frac
(above, i is the imaginary unit and |\cdot| is the Euclidean norm). Here, it is assumed that the time-harmonic field is e^u. If the time-harmonic field is instead e^u, one should replace -i with +i in the Sommerfeld radiation condition.
The Sommerfeld radiation condition is used to solve uniquely the Helmholtz equation. For example, consider the problem of radiation due to a point source x_0 in three dimensions, so the function f in the Helmholtz equation is f(x)=\delta(x-x_0), where \delta is the Dirac delta function. This problem has an infinite number of solutions, for example, any function of the form
:u = cu_+ + (1-c) u_- \,
where c is a constant, and
: u_(x) = \frac.
Of all these solutions, only u_+ satisfies the Sommerfeld radiation condition and corresponds to a field radiating from x_0. The other solutions are unphysical. For example, u_ can be interpreted as energy coming from infinity and sinking at x_0.
