Abstract:

Kirchhoffs theorem is finding diverse applications in acoustics and optics. Its generalization for the case of a moving medium has been given by D. I. Blokhintsev who limited himself to an examination of a uniform flow. This paper gives a further generalization of this theorem for the case of a potential movement of a medium. The application of the theorem is illustrated with the solution of a problem on the point source of sound, which is in the flow. Author
