Paper by A. Góngora-T. and E. Ley-Koo in Revista Mexicana de Física 42 (1996), with English and Spanish abstracts. It revisits Maxwell's image and spherical-harmonic solutions, which converge slowly, and builds the potential, electric field, surface charges and capacitance in bispherical harmonics. It checks series convergence for limiting cases such as a very small sphere, one sphere enclosing another, and the concentric-sphere result.

Theelectrostatic fieldandthecapacitance ofspherical capacitors withconcentric electrodes isstudiedintheintroductory physicscourses. Thestudyofthesameproblem when theelectrodes arenotconcentric requiresahigherlevelofelectrical andmathematical knowledge. Maxwell inhisTreatisesolvedtheproblem bythemethodofimagesandbyexpansions inspherical harmonics, butbothsolutions presentslowconvergence difliculties. Inthispaperthesolution of theproblem isconstructed byusingbispherical coordinates andshowing thatthecorresponding expansionsinbisphericalharmonicshavenoconvergence difficulties. RESUMEN.

Maxwell studied theproblem oftwononintersecting spheres bythemethod ofimages andbyexpansions inspherical harmonics centered ineachsphere, obtaining infinitese- riesrepresentations forthecapacity coefficients [4).However, bothsolutions present slow convergence difficulties astheiruseincurrent research ontheelectrostatic response of bidimensional arrangements ofmicrospheres hasshown151.MoonandSpencer 16Jstudied theproblem oftwoequalspheres usingbispherical coordinates, whileArfken[7]assignsthe problem ofasphereandaplaneasanexercise intheapplication ofthesamecoordinates. 664 A.GÓNGORA-T.
