Analytical study of higher order modes of elliptical cavities using oblate spheroidal eigenvalue solution

The oblate spheroidal shape is close to the commonly used elliptical rf cavity shape employed in accelerators. Here we solve the oblate spheroidal radial and angular wave functions to obtain the frequencies of the axisymmetric TM and TE modes. We develop a semianalytic formalism to calculate the cha...
