Electromagnetic radiation (EMR) basics for remote sensing
... We’ve just described a transmitter/emitter, in which we somehow accelerated the electrons. Conversely, if an oscillating wave “washes by” a charge that is initially at rest, the charge will accelerate in response. In this case, the electromagnetic wave does work on the charge. Now we have a receiver ...

For the case of positions like the one marked by “A” in Fig. 4, the fields of the laser pulse and the SPP are always of the same phase, which will result in constructive interference. One will find the largest electron yield at ...

Thomas Young (scientist)
.jpg?width=300)
Thomas Young (13 June 1773 – 10 May 1829) was an English polymath and physician. Young made notable scientific contributions to the fields of vision, light, solid mechanics, energy, physiology, language, musical harmony, and Egyptology. He ""made a number of original and insightful innovations""in the decipherment of Egyptian hieroglyphs (specifically the Rosetta Stone) before Jean-François Champollion eventually expanded on his work. He was mentioned by, among others, William Herschel, Hermann von Helmholtz, James Clerk Maxwell, and Albert Einstein. Young has been described as ""The Last Man Who Knew Everything"".
