  2. Bragg's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bragg's_law

    This equation, Bragg's law, describes the condition on θ for constructive interference. [12] A map of the intensities of the scattered waves as a function of their angle is called a diffraction pattern. Strong intensities known as Bragg peaks are obtained in the diffraction pattern when the scattering angles satisfy Bragg condition.

  3. Radio acoustic sounding system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_acoustic_sounding_system

    The principle of operation behind RASS is as follows: Bragg scattering occurs when acoustic energy (i.e., sound) is transmitted into the vertical beam of a radar such that the wavelength of the acoustic signal matches the half-wavelength of the radar. As the frequency of the acoustic signal is varied, strongly enhanced scattering of the radar ...

  4. Debye–Waller factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Debye–Waller_factor

    () is the atomic form factor of the atom ; it determines how the distribution of scattering matter about the nuclear position influences scattering. T k ( q → ) {\displaystyle T_{k}({\vec {q}})} is the atomic Debye–Waller factor; it determines how the propensity for nuclear displacement from the reference lattice position influences scattering.

  5. Acousto-optic modulator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acousto-optic_modulator

    When the incident light beam is at Bragg angle, a diffraction pattern emerges where an order of diffracted beam occurs at each angle θ that satisfies: [3] ⁡ = Here, m = ..., −2, −1, 0, +1, +2, ... is the order of diffraction, λ is the wavelength of light in vacuum, and Λ is the wavelength of the sound. [4]

  6. Scattering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scattering

    Scattering also includes the interaction of billiard balls on a table, the Rutherford scattering (or angle change) of alpha particles by gold nuclei, the Bragg scattering (or diffraction) of electrons and X-rays by a cluster of atoms, and the inelastic scattering of a fission fragment as it traverses a thin foil.

  7. Transfer-matrix method (optics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transfer-matrix_method...

    Although the scattering length density profile is normally a continuously varying function, the interfacial structure can often be well approximated by a slab model in which layers of thickness (d n), scattering length density (ρ n) and roughness (σ n,n+1) are sandwiched between the super- and sub-phases. One then uses a refinement procedure ...

    Later that day, Hegseth announced that Fort Liberty’s name would be changed back to Fort Bragg – in honor of a World War II hero, not the Confederate general who had been its original namesake.

  9. Scatterometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scatterometer

    The scattering mechanism is known as Bragg scattering, which occurs from the waves that are in resonance with the microwaves. The backscattered power depends on the wind speed and direction. Viewed from different azimuth angles, the observed backscatter from these waves varies.
