Comment on " Topological phase in two flavor neutrino oscillations"
Rajendra Bhandari
We critically analyze the claims with regard to the relevance of topological phases in the physics of neutrino oscillation made in a recent paper [Phys. Rev. D 79, 096013 (2009)] a…
A simple inverter for polarization transformations
Rajendra Bhandari
It is shown that a transparent birefringent element whose eigenstates are a pair of elliptical polarizations with principalaxes along the x and y axes, sandwiched between a pair of…
The nonmodular topological phase and phase singularities
Rajendra Bhandari
Generalizing an earlier definition of the noncyclic geometric phase (R.Bhandari, Phys.Lett.A, 157, 221 (1991)), a nonmodular topological phase is defined with reference to a generi…
Reciprocity constraints on the matrix of reflection from optically anisotropic surfaces
Rajendra Bhandari
We derive certain constraints on the reflection matrix for reflection from a plane, nonmagnetic, optically anisotropic surface using a reciprocity theorem stated long ago by van de…
Cancellation of simple optical anisotropies without use of a Faraday mirror
Rajendra Bhandari
We first derive the round-trip Jones matrix for double passage through a reciprocal optical medium by means of reflection off a plane mirror that could be optically anisotropic. We…
Transpose symmetry of the Jones Matrix and topological phases
Rajendra Bhandari
The transmission Jones matrix of an arbitrary stack of reciprocal plane parallel plates which has been turned through 180 degrees about an axis in the plane of the stack is, in an…
