transverse wave
A solenoidal plane wave A perpendicular to the propagation direction in the sense that if A = A0exp(i'''k • x' − iωt), where 'k is the wave vector, then k × A = 0. Electromagnetic waves are examples of transverse waves. Acoustic waves in solids have both irrotational and solenoidal components that propagate with different phase velocities. Compare longitudinal wave.
