This research article deals with the propagation of plane waves in a rotating magneto-thermoelastic half-space with diffusion in the context of Lord–Shulman theory of thermoelasticity. The governing equations are formulated for a specialized plane and solved to obtain the velocity equation, which indicates the existence of four coupled plane waves. The wave velocities are computed for a particular medium, and the effect of the diffusion parameter is shown graphically on these waves. Impedance boundary conditions are applied to study the reflection of plane waves from the stress-free and thermally insulated/isothermal surface. Reflection coefficients and energy ratios of the reflected waves are also obtained, and the variations of reflection coefficients and energy ratios against the angle of incidence are shown graphically.
