Wigner-Wilkins neutron/nucleus scattering kernel quantum-mechanically derived
J. A. Grzesik
We undertake herein to derive the Wigner-Wilkins [W-W] neutron/nucleus scattering kernel, a foundation stone in neutron thermalization theory, on the basis of a self-contained calc…
Homogeneous and Inhomogeneous Formulations of Nonrelativistic Potential Scattering
Jan A. Grzesik
Advantage is taken of the arbitrariness in energy reference to consider anew integral transcriptions of Schrodinger's equation in the presence of potentials which at infinity acqui…
Dielectric slab reflection/transmission as a self-consistent radiation phenomenon
J. A. Grzesik
We revisit the electromagnetic problem of wave incidence upon a uniform, dissipative dielectric slab of finite thickness. While this problem is easily solved via interface field co…
Budden's Paradox Resolved
J. A. Grzesik
Budden's energy nonconservation paradox is dispelled herein by recognizing that pole approach to the spatial origin from below in the complex plane can be resolved into a real prin…
Wedge Diffraction as an Instance of Radiative Shielding
J. A. Grzesik
The celebrated Sommerfeld wedge diffraction solution is reexamined from a null interior field perspective. Exact surface currents provided by that solution, when considered as dise…
Radiative Albedo from a Linearly Fibered Half Space
J. A. Grzesik
A growing acceptance of fiber reinforced composite materials imparts some relevance to exploring the effects which a predominantly linear scattering lattice may have upon interior…
