I Parameters of the rough surface (for electromagnetic scattering)

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on labeling statistical parameters, specifically sigma (σ) and correlation length (lc), on a schematic representation of a rough surface for a manuscript on electromagnetic scattering. It suggests that σ can be represented as a vertical error bar, while lc can be depicted as a horizontal bar. Participants are looking for clarity on how to effectively illustrate these parameters in their figures. Additionally, links to relevant papers are shared for further reference on the topic. Proper labeling of these parameters is essential for enhancing the understanding of surface roughness in electromagnetic scattering studies.

Dear friends,
I will be grateful if anyone can help me
I study electromagnetic scattering by rough surfaces for a certain case. Each rough surface can be specified with the statistical parameters sigma (σ) and correlation length (lc). while writing my manuscript I drew a schematic representation of a rough surface. one of the reviewers asked me to label these parameters (σ and lc) on the figure. I can't understand how to label these parameters on the figure as they are just statistical parameters that control the surface roughness level. so, can anyone explain to me how to label the statistical parameters of the rough surface?

Thread 'Gauss' law seems to imply instantaneous electric field propagation'

Imagine a charged sphere at the origin connected through an open switch to a vertical grounded wire. We wish to find an expression for the horizontal component of the electric field at a distance ##\mathbf{r}## from the sphere as it discharges. By using the Lorenz gauge condition: $$\nabla \cdot \mathbf{A} + \frac{1}{c^2}\frac{\partial \phi}{\partial t}=0\tag{1}$$ we find the following retarded solutions to the Maxwell equations If we assume that...

Thread 'Griffith, Electrodynamics, 4th Edition, Example 4.8. (First part)'

I am reading the Griffith, Electrodynamics book, 4th edition, Example 4.8 and stuck at some statements. It's little bit confused. > Example 4.8. Suppose the entire region below the plane ##z=0## in Fig. 4.28 is filled with uniform linear dielectric material of susceptibility ##\chi_e##. Calculate the force on a point charge ##q## situated a distance ##d## above the origin. Solution : The surface bound charge on the ##xy## plane is of opposite sign to ##q##, so the force will be...

Thread 'Simple thought experiment with Stefan-Boltzmann law: energy'

Dear all, in an encounter of an infamous claim by Gerlich and Tscheuschner that the Greenhouse effect is inconsistent with the 2nd law of thermodynamics I came to a simple thought experiment which I wanted to share with you to check my understanding and brush up my knowledge. The thought experiment I tried to calculate through is as follows. I have a sphere (1) with radius ##r##, acting like a black body at a temperature of exactly ##T_1 = 500 K##. With Stefan-Boltzmann you can calculate...
