We consider the wave analogue of the classical Newton problem of
the body of minimal resistance. In the wave setting, instead of a
homogenuous parallel flow of particles and classical resistance,
one should consider a plane wave and the transport cross section.
Trying to solve the problem, we found some new natural effects of
scattering theory unknown even for physicists.
