The exact formula for the mutual inductance of coaxial solenoids

Author: Cohen, L.

Year: 1907

Coffin quoted a formula for the mutual inductance of two coaxial solenoids, which he attributed to Kirchhoff. The author, having found by trial that the formula gave obviously erroneous results, was led to investigate where it was wrong. Using a method suggested by Himstedt, the complete solution of the problem is obtained in terms of complete and incomplete elliptic integrals. The formula agrees with the elliptic integral formula given by Russell, when an algebraical slip in the latter's formula, as printed in the /b Phil.Mag./, is corrected.
