Abstract
The potential field of a point source of electric current, located on the surface of the earth above a dipping bed, is determined exactly by solving the appropriate differential equation. It is concluded that image theory is useful only in the two cases in which the reflection coefficient is plus one and the angle of dip is [Formula: see text] and in which the reflection coefficient is minus one and the dip angle is [Formula: see text] m being an integer. Computing methods are also developed for the cases in which the image theory is not applicable. Some numerical tables necessary for computation and several apparent resistivity curves are presented.
