This applications-oriented text features a detailed and unified account of the use and calculation of spheroidal wave functions. Addressed to applied mathematicians, mathematical physicists, and mathematical engineers, it discusses separation of the scalar wave equation in spheroidal coordinates, angle and radial functions, integral representations and relationism, and expansions in spherical Bessel function products. Republication of the Stanford, California, 1957 edition.
