cross absorption
1Absorption cross section — is a measure for the probability of an absorption process. More generally, the term cross section is used in physics to quantify the probability of a certain particle particle interaction, e.g., scattering, photoabsorption, etc. (Note that light… …
2Cross section — may refer to: Cross section (geometry), the intersection of a 3 dimensional body with a plane Cross sectional views in architecture engineering Radar cross section, the unit of measure of how detectable an object is with a radar Cross section… …
3Absorption (electromagnetic radiation) — An overview of electromagnetic radiation absorption. This example discusses the general principle using visible light as specific example. A white beam source emitting light of multiple wavelengths is focused on a sample (the complementary color… …
4Cross section (physics) — A cross section is the effective area which governs the probability of some scattering or absorption event. Together with particle density and path length, it can be used to predict the total scattering probability via the Beer Lambert law. In… …

8cross section — 1. a section made by a plane cutting anything transversely, esp. at right angles to the longest axis. 2. a piece so cut off. 3. a photograph, diagram, or other pictorial representation of such a section. 4. the act of cutting anything across. 5.… …
9Absorption coefficient — The absorption coefficient α is a property of a material. It defines the extent to which a material absorbs energy, for example that of sound waves or electromagnetic radiation. Wallace Sabine was a pioneer of this concept in acoustics and… …
10Two-photon absorption — (TPA) is the simultaneous absorption of two photons of identical or different frequencies in order to excite a molecule from one state (usually the ground state) to a higher energy electronic state. The energy difference between the involved… …
