Abstract

The reflection of waves for a stratified medium in (-∞, ∞) can be studied by transforming the hypergeometric differential equation into a wave equation. In the context of an astrophysical problem [1], the corresponding analysis is carried out for an Epstein profile in (0, ∞). This profile represents a scattering potential in quantum mechanical terminology: its properties are briefly discussed.
