  2. Transmission coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transmission_coefficient

    Different fields of application have different definitions for the term. All the meanings are very similar in concept: In chemistry, the transmission coefficient refers to a chemical reaction overcoming a potential barrier; in optics and telecommunications it is the amplitude of a wave transmitted through a medium or conductor to that of the incident wave; in quantum mechanics it is used to ...

  3. Fresnel equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fresnel_equations

    But in computing the power transmission (below), these factors must be taken into account. The simplest way to obtain the power transmission coefficient (transmissivity, the ratio of transmitted power to incident power in the direction normal to the interface, i.e. the y direction) is to use R + T = 1 (conservation of energy). In this way we find

  4. Transfer-matrix method (optics) - Wikipedia

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

    Thinfilm is a web interface that implements the transfer-matrix method, outputting reflection and transmission coefficients, and also ellipsometric parameters Psi and Delta. Luxpop.com is another web interface that implements the transfer-matrix method. Transfer-matrix calculating programs in Python and in Mathematica.

  5. Rectangular potential barrier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rectangular_potential_barrier

    In classical wave-physics, this effect is known as evanescent wave coupling. The likelihood that the particle will pass through the barrier is given by the transmission coefficient, whereas the likelihood that it is reflected is given by the reflection coefficient. Schrödinger's wave-equation allows these coefficients to be calculated.

  6. Eyring equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eyring_equation

    The Eyring equation (occasionally also known as Eyring–Polanyi equation) is an equation used in chemical kinetics to describe changes in the rate of a chemical reaction against temperature. It was developed almost simultaneously in 1935 by Henry Eyring , Meredith Gwynne Evans and Michael Polanyi .

  7. Schwarzschild's equation for radiative transfer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schwarzschild's_equation...

    Schwarzschild's equation is the formula by which you may calculate the intensity of any flux of electromagnetic energy after passage through a non-scattering medium when all variables are fixed, provided we know the temperature, pressure, and composition of the medium.

  8. Propagation constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propagation_constant

    The primary coefficients are the physical properties of the line, namely R,C,L and G, from which the secondary coefficients may be derived using the telegrapher's equation. In the field of transmission lines, the term transmission coefficient has a different meaning despite the similarity of name: it is the companion of the reflection coefficient.

  9. Transport coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transport_coefficient

    A transport coefficient measures how rapidly a perturbed system returns to equilibrium. The transport coefficients occur in transport phenomenon with transport laws J k = γ k X k {\displaystyle \mathbf {J} _{k}=\gamma _{k}\mathbf {X} _{k}}
