Abstract

The equation of radiative acoustics is derived by taking into account the effect of a transverse magnetic field, which is quite similar to the acoustic equation derived in Paper I. The only difference is that theadiabatic, isothermal, andisentropic speeds of sound and theradiation-acoustic speed are replaced by theadiabatic, isothermal, andisentropic magnetoacoustic speeds and theradiation-magnetoacoustic speed, respectively. The main results shown in Paper I are valid even in the presence of a transverse magnetic field.
