... secondary maxima occur. For  ¼ 4a the radiant intensity can hardly be distinguished from that generated by an almost spectrally fully coherent beam with  ¼ 100a. The displayed scattering angle  is restricted to the range 0    90 , because for larger values the curves essentially coincide w ...

... watts per steradian); however, in order to make the results more meaningful, these signals are usually normalized, in some fashion, by the light incident on the scatter source. The three ways commonly employed to do this (BRDF, TIS and DSC) are defined here. If the feature in question is uniformly d ...

Thomas Young (scientist)



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"".
