  2. 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 ...

  3. Talk:Reflection coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Reflection_coefficient

    If you accept that the reflection coefficient is equivalent to the S11 scattering parameter of the load, and that Z0 is the impedance the load sees looking out of its port, i.e. the source impedance, then the formula as written contradicts the definition of S11 (see Scattering_parameters). S11 is defined as b1/a1; a1 is defined as (1/2) K1 (V1 ...

    Meaning SI unit of measure alpha: alpha particle: angular acceleration: radian per second squared (rad/s 2) fine-structure constant: unitless beta: velocity in terms of the speed of light c: unitless beta particle: gamma: Lorentz factor: unitless photon: gamma ray: shear strain: radian

  5. Reflection coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reflection_coefficient

    In physics and electrical engineering the reflection coefficient is a parameter that describes how much of a wave is reflected by an impedance discontinuity in the transmission medium. It is equal to the ratio of the amplitude of the reflected wave to the incident wave, with each expressed as phasors .

  6. Physical coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physical_coefficient

    Partition coefficient (K D) - The ratio of concentrations of a compound in two phases of a mixture of two immiscible solvents at equilibrium. Hall coefficient (electrical physics) - Relates a magnetic field applied to an element to the voltage created, the amount of current and the element thickness. It is a characteristic of the material from ...

  7. 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).

  8. Zoeppritz equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zoeppritz_equations

    Several attempts have been made to develop approximations to the Zoeppritz equations, such as Bortfeld's (1961) and Aki & Richards’ (1980), [4] but the most successful of these is the Shuey's, which assumes Poisson's ratio to be the elastic property most directly related to the angular dependence of the reflection coefficient.

  9. Radiative transfer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radiative_transfer

    Radiative transfer (also called radiation transport) is the physical phenomenon of energy transfer in the form of electromagnetic radiation.The propagation of radiation through a medium is affected by absorption, emission, and scattering processes.
