Excerpt from Determination of Reflected and Transmitted Fields by Geometrical Optics IIWe apply the above procedure to the problem of determining the field due to an incident field having an arbitrary wawe front which impinges on an interface separating two homogeneous, isotropic media. It then becomes necessary to calculate the ratio of the infinitesimal areas at the two ends of a tube of rays where the rays of the tube are reflected from or transmitted by the interface. This area ratio is precisely the Jacobian of the mapping of one area onto the other.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
