  2. Huygens–Fresnel principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Huygens–Fresnel_principle

    The Huygens–Fresnel principle (named after Dutch physicist Christiaan Huygens and French physicist Augustin-Jean Fresnel) states that every point on a wavefront is itself the source of spherical wavelets, and the secondary wavelets emanating from different points mutually interfere. [1] The sum of these spherical wavelets forms a new wavefront.

  3. Deconvolution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deconvolution

    Deconvolution maps to division in the Fourier co-domain. This allows deconvolution to be easily applied with experimental data that are subject to a Fourier transform. An example is NMR spectroscopy where the data are recorded in the time domain, but analyzed in the frequency domain. Division of the time-domain data by an exponential function ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christiaan_Huygens

    Christiaan Huygens, Lord of Zeelhem, FRS (/ ˈ h aɪ ɡ ən z / HY-gənz, [2] US also / ˈ h ɔɪ ɡ ən z / HOY-gənz; [3] Dutch: [ˈkrɪstijaːn ˈɦœyɣə(n)s] ⓘ; also spelled Huyghens; Latin: Hugenius; 14 April 1629 – 8 July 1695) was a Dutch mathematician, physicist, engineer, astronomer, and inventor who is regarded as a key figure in the Scientific Revolution.

  5. Psychology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychology

    [14] This definition enjoyed widespread currency for decades. However, this meaning was contested, notably by John B. Watson, who in 1913 asserted the methodological behaviorist view of psychology as a purely objective experimental branch of natural science, the theoretical goal of which "is the prediction and control of behavior."

  6. Surface equivalence principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_equivalence_principle

    It is an extension of Huygens–Fresnel principle, which describes each point on a wavefront as a spherical wave source. The equivalence of the imaginary surface currents are enforced by the uniqueness theorem in electromagnetism , which dictates that a unique solution can be determined by fixing a boundary condition on a system.

  7. Cellular deconvolution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cellular_deconvolution

    Cellular deconvolution algorithms have been applied to a variety of samples collected from saliva, [5] buccal, [5] cervical, [5] PBMC, [6] brain, [2] kidney, [1] and pancreatic cells, [1] and many studies have shown that estimating and incorporating the proportions of cell types into various analyses improves the interpretability of high ...

  9. Treatise on Light - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Treatise_on_Light

    Following his remarks on the propagation medium and the speed of light, Huygens gives a geometric illustration of the wavefront, the foundation of what became known as Huygens’ Principle. His principle of propagation is a demonstration of how a wave of light (or rather a pulse) emanating from a point also results in smaller wavelets: [12]
