Русский: Показано классическое отражение/прохождение солитона гауссового импульса от/в более плотную среду. В реальности же, свет отражается не от поверхности, а от всех частиц тела (см. ru:КЭД). English: Illustration of partial reflection of a wave. A gaussian wave on a one-dimensional string strikes a boundary with transmission coefficient of 0.5. Half the wave is transmitted and half is reflected.
Français : Illustration de la réflection partielle d'une onde. Une onde gaussienne se déplaçant sur un ressort unidimensionnel est réfléchie/transmise au niveau d'une interface avec un coefficient de transmission de 0.5.
Español: Ilustración de una reflexión parcial de una onda. Una onda gaussiana sobre una cuerda de una dimensión choca contra un limite con un coeficiente de transmisión de 0.5. La mitad de la onda es transmitida y la otra mitad es reflejada. |
