Fraunhofer diffraction — In optics, Fraunhofer diffraction is a form of wave diffraction, which occurs when field waves are passed through an aperture or slit, causing only the size of an observed aperture image to change Hecht, E. (1987) , p396 Definition of Fraunhofer… … Wikipedia
Transmissometer — A transmissometer is an instrument for measuring the extinction coefficient of the atmosphere, and for the determination of visual range. It operates by sending a narrow, collimated beam of energy (usually a laser) through the propagation medium … Wikipedia
Attenuation coefficient — For attenuation coefficient as it applies to electromagnetic theory and telecommunications see propagation constant. For the mass attenuation coefficient , see the article mass attenuation coefficient. The attenuation coefficient is a quantity… … Wikipedia
Convolution for optical broad-beam responses in scattering media — Photon transport theories, such as the Monte Carlo method, are commonly used to model light propagation in tissue. The responses to a pencil beam incident on a scattering medium are referred to as Green’s functions or impulse responses. Photon… … Wikipedia
Mass attenuation coefficient — The mass attenuation coefficient is a measurement of how strongly a chemical species or substance absorbs or scatters light at a given wavelength, per unit mass. In addition to visible light, mass attenuation coefficients can be defined for other … Wikipedia
