Abstract
For Sommerfeld's exact solution of the problem of the diffraction of light by a wedge, limited by two perfectly reflecting planes, new asymptotic formulas are given; these also hold near one of the boundaries between light and shadow, at a distance from the diffracting body which is large compared with the wave-length of light.Keywords
