A new analytical method for solving an initial value problem (IVP) for the system of crystal optics with polynomial data and a polynomial inhomogeneous term is suggested. The found solution of the IVP is a polynomial. Theoretical and computational analysis of polynomial solutions and their comparison with non-polynomial solutions corresponding to smooth data are given. The applicability of polynomial solutions to physical processes is discussed. An implementation of this method has been made by symbolic computations in Maple 10.
