Dear Meep users,

I am trying to simulate the magnetic field created by a coplanar waveguide
(CPW): 3 parallels  (gold ) wires  (Conductivity sigma=41MS/m), at the
frequency 6.8 GHz (injected currents:  -3,6,-3 A, characteristic dimension
a=1µm).
Please find the 'ctl' file for more details. Unfortunately, the simulated
field amplitude is lower than the expected value ( about 1/3).
I also noticed that I increasing or decreasing the conductivity, change the
amplitude dramatically (by several order of magnitude), which is also
unexpected.

Have you noticed this kind of behavior before ? (It's may be related to the
skin depth but the resolution doesn't change the results ).

I will be grateful if you can give me an explanation.
Thanks in advance for your time and  your responses.
