Extract

The circle theorem of Milne-Thomson(1) connecting the complex potential in a two-dimensional irrotational flow about a circular cylinder with that of the flow when the cylinder is absent has a three-dimensional counterpart in the result due to Weiss (3) for the perturbed velocity potential in an unlimited irrotational flow when the rigid spherical boundary r = a is inserted.
