Abstract
Absorbing boundary conditions are comparatively studied using the Green's functions of the vector and scalar potentials for multilayer geometries and general sources. The absorbing boundaries are introduced as additional layers with predefined reflection coefficients into the calculation of the Green's functions. The Green's functions are calculated using different reflection coefficients corresponding to different absorbing boundaries and compared to those obtained with no absorbing boundary. This approach provides an absolute measure of the effectiveness of different absorbing boundaries.
