  2. S-matrix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S-matrix

    In physics, the S-matrix or scattering matrix is a matrix that relates the initial state and the final state of a physical system undergoing a scattering process.It is used in quantum mechanics, scattering theory and quantum field theory (QFT).

  3. Scattering parameters - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scattering_parameters

    The RF Toolbox add-on to MATLAB [26] and several books (for example "Network scattering parameters" [27]) use this last definition, so caution is necessary. The "From S to T" and "From T to S" paragraphs in this article are based on the first definition. Adaptation to the second definition is trivial (interchanging T11 for T22, and T12 for T21 ...

  4. Bidirectional scattering distribution function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bidirectional_scattering...

    Some tend to use the term BSDF simply as a category name covering the whole family of BxDF functions. The term BSDF is sometimes used in a slightly different context, for the function describing the amount of the scatter (not scattered light), simply as a function of the incident light angle. An example to illustrate this context: for perfectly ...

  6. Scattering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scattering

    The term "elastic scattering" implies that the internal states of the scattering particles do not change, and hence they emerge unchanged from the scattering process. In inelastic scattering, by contrast, the particles' internal state is changed, which may amount to exciting some of the electrons of a scattering atom, or the complete ...

  7. Electron scattering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electron_scattering

    The collision causes the photon wavelength to increase by somewhere between 0 (for a scattering angle of 0°) and twice the Compton wavelength (for a scattering angle of 180°). [32] Thomson scattering is the classical elastic quantitative interpretation of the scattering process, [26] and this can be seen to happen with lower, mid-energy, photons.

  8. Solid angle - Wikipedia

    In terms of the total celestial sphere, the Sun and the Moon subtend average fractional areas of 0.000 5406 % (5.406 ppm) and 0.000 5107 % (5.107 ppm), respectively. As these solid angles are about the same size, the Moon can cause both total and annular solar eclipses depending on the distance between the Earth and the Moon during the eclipse.
