abstract = {<p style="text-align: justify;">Helical waves are eigenfunctions of the curl operator and can be used to decompose an arbitrary three-dimensional vector field orthogonally. In turbulence study,
high accuracy for helical waves especially of high wavenumber is required. Due to the
difficulty in analytical formulation, the more feasible strategy to obtain helical waves
is numerical computation. For circular cylinders of finite length, a semi-analytical
method via infinite series to formulate the helical wave is known [E. C. Morse, J. Math.
Phys., 46 (2005), 113511], where the eigenvalues are evaluated by iterating transcend
equations. In this paper, the numerical computation for helical wave in a finite circular
cylinder is implemented using a Chebyshev spectral method. The solving is transformed into a standard matrix eigenvalue problem. The large eigenvalues are computed with high precision, and the calculation cost to rule out spurious eigenvalues is
significantly reduced with a new criterion suggested.</p>},
