Dispersion relations

Performing the substitutions of Table [*].1 into equation (10) gives dispersion relationships for comparison to the exact expression (8). These are shown in Table [*].2.

 
Table: As displayed in Figure 1, the dispersion relations tend toward a semicircle.
   
$5^\circ$ $k_z \eq \displaystyle {\strut\omega\over v}$
   
   
$15^\circ$ $k_z \eq \displaystyle {\strut\omega\over v} -
 \displaystyle {\strut v k_x^2\over 2\omega}$
   
   
$45^\circ$ $k_z \eq \displaystyle{\strut \omega\over v} 
 -{\displaystyle {\strut k_x^2}\over
 \displaystyle {2\,{\omega\over v} - 
 {\strut v k_x^2\over 2\omega}}}$
