Level of Students Conceptual Understanding and Resource Theory View: Geometric Optics

open access: yesInternational Journal of Education and Teaching Zone, 2022
This study aims to identify the level of understanding (LoU) and resources that students activate. This is a descriptive study. The study used a survey method by distributing ten multiple-choice questions. The focus of the study is geometric optics.

Geometric optics and the “hairy ball theorem”

open access: yesResults in Physics, 2016
Applications of the hairy ball theorem to the geometrical optics are discussed. When the ideal mirror, topologically equivalent to a sphere, is illuminated at every point, the “hairy ball theorem” prescribes the existence of at least one point at which ...

Propagation and Focusing Properties of Vortex Beams Based on Light Ray Tracing

open access: yesFrontiers in Physics, 2022
By using the ray-tracing method based on geometric optics, we studied the propagating and focusing characteristics of vortex beams with a top-hat intensity distribution.

Scattering of ECRF waves by edge density fluctuations and blobs

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2015
The scattering of electron cyclotron waves by density blobs embedded in the edge region of a fusion plasma is studied using a full-wave model. The full-wave theory is a generalization of the usual approach of geometric optics ray scattering by blobs ...

The classical limit of quantum optics: not what it seems at first sight

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2013
What light is and how to describe it has always been a central subject in physics. As our understanding has increased, so have our theories changed: geometrical optics, wave optics and quantum optics are increasingly sophisticated descriptions, each ...

Two approaches to the problem of ray seismic tomography

open access: yesГеофизический журнал, 2015
Approximation of nonlinear geophysical medium as a linear one substantiates a transition to geometrical seismics based on geometric optics. Conditions, necessary and sufficient for application of geometrical optics bring possibility of linearization ...
