Summary:This paper presents a reciprocity theorem for dynamic problems in thermoelastic dielectrics and a derivation of fundamental solutions to the wave equations for infinite continuous media. In particular, Green's functions are obtained in closed form for the displacement and polarization vectors, the temperature and Maxwell's electric fields resulting from various causes, all of which are assumed to vary harmonically with time. The last section is devoted to some consequences of the reciprocity theorem given here.
