scattering-in term
1Scattering parameters — or S parameters are properties used in electrical engineering, electronics engineering, and communication systems engineering describing the electrical behavior of linear electrical networks when undergoing various steady state stimuli by small… …
2Scattering length — The scattering length in quantum mechanics describes low energy scattering. It is represented by the term a. General concept When a slow particle scatters off a short ranged scatterer (e.g. an impurity in a solid or a heavy particle) it cannot… …
3scattering — /skat euhr ing/, adj. 1. distributed or occurring here and there at irregular intervals; scattered. 2. straggling, as an assemblage of parts. 3. (of votes) cast in small numbers for various candidates. 4. distributing, dispersing, or separating.… …
4Compton scattering — Light–matter interaction Low energy phenomena …
5Multiangle light scattering — (MALS) is a technique for determining, independently, the absolute molar mass and the average size of particles in solution, by detecting how they scatter light. Collimated light from a laser source is most often used, in which case the technique …
6Mie scattering — Monostatic radar cross section [RCS] of a perfectly conducting metal sphere as a function of frequency (calculated by Mie theory). In the low frequency Rayleigh scattering limit where the circumference is less than the wavelength, the normalized… …
7Helium atom scattering — (HAS) is a surface analysis technique used in materials science. HAS provides information about the surface structure and lattice dynamics of a material by measuring the diffracted atoms from a monochromatic helium beam incident on the sample.… …
8Inverse scattering transform — In mathematics, the inverse scattering transform is a method for solving some non linear partial differential equations. It is one of the most important developments in mathematical physics in the past 40 years. The method is a non linear… …
9Inelastic scattering — In particle physics and chemistry, inelastic scattering is a fundamental scattering process in which the kinetic energy of an incident particle is not conserved (in contrast to elastic scattering). In an inelastic scattering process, some of the… …
10Bidirectional scattering distribution function — The definition of the BSDF (Bidirectional scattering distribution function) is not well standardized. The term was probably introduced in 1991 by Paul Heckbert ref|endnote veach1997 a. Most often it is used to name the general mathematical… …
