An experiment to measure Mie and Rayleigh total scattering cross
... Absorption was negligible for the particles studied so is the scattering cross section. It is necessary that the experiments be performed under conditions for which single scattering is the dominant attenuation process. Otherwise, some light scattered out of the original beam might be scattered ag ...

Photogeneration, Transport and Recombination of Charge Carriers
... • All these photo-related phenomena are based on generation of mobile charge carriers upon absorption of light by an organic material. • The light should possess a certain threshold energy. This energy is related but not always equal to the band gap. • Photoconductivity is carrier movement in extern ...

... As we can see, the data from the double slit is clearly better than that of the single slit (table 1). In fact, the error for the single slit should probably be worse than what it is. Having multiple slits provides a sharper peak. This is why I say that the error should probably be worse. We didn’t ...

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"".
