## Abstract In this paper, the Ritz variational method is proposed to analyze the characteristics of the higher order TM modes for pentagonal waveguides. A series of functions are used as basis function to satisfy the boundary condition of the pentagonal waveguide metal wall. Then the scalar Helmho

β¦ Synopsis
In this paper, an extension of Modal Assurance Criterion (MAC) is proposed. It considers the correlation between a modal vector and a subspace spanned by several modal vectors, instead of the usual correlation between two modal vectors. Such higher-order MAC provides additional insight whenever multiple or close eigenvalues exist. In principle, any number of modal vectors can be considered to span the subspace. A closed-form expression is derived for the correlation of a modal vector with a two-dimensional subspace, referred to as S2MAC (subspace of order 2 Modal Assurance Criterion). This allows a better understanding in situations involving double eigenvalues or pairs of close natural frequencies, as highlighted by the discussed test cases.

A method for quantifying the magnitude of higher order field modes radiated by an arbitrarily shaped antenna is presented. Numerically determined fields are equated with the general multipolar field expansion, allowing the relati¨e magnitude of each higher order component to be determined.
It is well known that dipolar field effects lead to multiple spin echoes in a simple two-RF pulse experiment (the MSE experiment). We show here that coherence transfer echoes (which identify the existence of multiple quantum coherences in liquid NMR) and multiple spin echoes have a common origin. Us
