Abstract
The symmetries of scattering data of a bianisotropic, homogeneous and
dispersive slab are investigated. It is demonstrated how these symmetries
can be used to reveal the symmetries of the medium parameters (four
three-dimensional susceptibility kernels). The underlying physical
experiment is a transient electromagnetic plane wave obliquely incident upon
the slab. The analysis is based on time-domain techniques and a wave
splitting transformation. The results follow from the assumed unique
solubility of an inverse problem for the split fields used earlier in the
anisotropic case. The building blocks in the method presented here is a set
of transformations between mirror image pair experiments. The main symmetry
classes that can be detected using this method are the spatial-reversal
symmetric (anisotropic) and the transversely or longitudinally mirror image
symmetric media. More symmetric classes are the bianisotropic axially
symmetric and the mirror image symmetric media.
