Abstract. Two experiments published in the works by Monstein and Wesly (1992) and Atsyukovskii (2011), which are interpreted by the authors as observation of longitudinal electromagnetic waves, are analyzed. It is shown that the results of these experiments can be explained from positions of classical theory of electromagnetic waves without involvement of the concept of longitudinal waves.

Keywords: experiments, longitudinal electromagnetic waves, classical theory of electromagnetic waves.
