Abstract

In this paper, a method is given for solving certain types of integral equations. It involves a technique of building up the solution of the given integral equation from that of a much simpler auxiliary equation and a consideration of this auxiliary equation forms a large section of the work. The method of solution is applied to a particular problem in semi-circular electron focusing in metals.
