Abstract
A procedure is presented for extracting the singularity from the kerne l in Pocklington's electric field integral equation for thin wires. Th e modified kernel which results may be used to dramatically improve th e computational efficiency of certain moment method formulations. A si mple example is considered in which pulse basis functions and point ma tching are used. For this case, a convenient approximation of the self -term is also derived.
