Comments, with reply, on "Magnetostatic waves in a normally magnetized waveguide structure" by M. Radmanesh et al

The commenter disagrees with M. Radmanesh et al. (ibid., vol.MTT-35, p.1226-30, Dec. 1987) that the case of a normally magnetized YIG-slab partially filling a waveguide has never been approached and solved, and asserts that there is a more powerful algorithm than the mismatching mode method. In replying, Radmanesh et al. insist that their first claim is true if waveguide is replaced with rectangular waveguide, and that they are trying to simplify the numerical algorithm used in their approach to the problem using integral equations.<
