Abstract
A dispersion analysis of six different finite element methods for appr oximating Maxwell's equations in space is presented. The study is limi ted to two space dimensions and triangular elements, but all the metho ds considered can be generalised to three dimensions using prismatic e lements. Spatial grids consisting of both equilateral and right triang les are considered.
