Brewster in Philos. Trans. (Royal Soc.) 104 225 (table) Angle of Polarisation. 1831 D. Brewster Treat. Optics xix. 170 The index of refraction is the cotangent of the angle of polarisation. 1913 Philos. Trans. (Royal Soc.) A. 212 391 It is not unreasonable to suppose that the portion of the scattered radiation due to self-illumination is independent of the angle of polarization of the incident radiation. 1998 Biotropica 30 276/1 The angle of polarization (or orientation of polarization) of partially linearly polarized light is defined as the dominant orientation of the e-vector (the spatial vector of the electrical field in the light beam). < as lemmas |
