Interference (wave propagation) — Two point interference in a ripple tank. In physics, interference is the phenomenon in which two waves superpose each other to form a resultant wave of greater or lower amplitude. Interference usually refers to the interaction of waves that are… … Wikipedia
Wave equation — Not to be confused with Wave function. The wave equation is an important second order linear partial differential equation for the description of waves – as they occur in physics – such as sound waves, light waves and water waves. It arises in… … Wikipedia
Wave vector — A wave vector is a vector representation of a wave. The wave vector has magnitude indicating wavenumber (reciprocal of wavelength), and the direction of the vector indicates the direction of wave propagation.The wave vector is most useful for… … Wikipedia
Vector soliton — Among all the soliton considered, the optical soliton draws the most attention as it is possible to generate ultrafast pulses and has wider application. optical soliton can be classified as two groups:temporal soliton and spatial soliton.however … Wikipedia
Propagation constant — The propagation constant of an electromagnetic wave is a measure of the change undergone by the amplitude of the wave as it propagates in a given direction. The quantity being measured can be the voltage or current in a circuit or a field vector… … Wikipedia
