in lossy media, beta is the phase constant, and alfa is the attenuation constant. the complex propagation constant gamma is defined = alfa + j * beta in this case the wavenumber k is complex as well, and it is related to gamma by gamma = j *k for lossless media, alfa = 0 and there are no...

regarding plane waves theory and their properties, for lossy media (conductors) in different books appear a formula that represent alfa y beta constants in the followig way: alfa = beta = root square( pi*frequency*mu*sigma) valid for good conductors (high loss material) I have checked...
