Abstract

In this paper, a complete asymptotic expansion of a high-frequency electromagnetic field in chiral media is constructed. Recurrence formulas for the coefficients of the expansion are found. Polarizations of electromagnetic waves are found and explained in the zero approximation. Bibliography: 5 titles.
