Solution of the skin effect problem with an arbitrary coefficient of specular reflection

An analytical solution of the skin effect problem in a metal with specular-diffuse boundary conditions is obtained. A new analytical method is developed that makes it possible to obtain a solution up to an arbitrary degree of accuracy. The method is based on the idea of representing not only the boundary condition on the field in the form of a source (which is conventional) but also the boundary condition on the distribution function. The solution is obtained in the form of a von Neumann series.
