Modeling physical optics phenomena by complex ray tracing [PDF]
Physical optics modeling requires propagating optical wave fields from a specific radiometric source through complex systems of apertures and reflective or refractive optical components, or even complete instruments or devices, usually to a focal plane or sensor.

Black hole shadow with soft hairs
Light bending by the strong gravity around the black hole will form the so-called black hole shadow, the shape of which can shed light on the structure of the near-horizon geometry to possibly reveal novel physics of strong gravity and black hole.

Doppler Modeling and Simulation of Train-to-Train Communication in Metro Tunnel Environment
The communication system of urban rail transit is gradually changing from train-to-ground (T2G) to train-to-train (T2T) communication. The subway can travel at speeds of up to 200 km/h in the tunnel environment, and communication between trains can be ...

Optimization of double drive pulse pumping in Ne-like Ge x-ray lasers [PDF]
Pumping of the Ne-like Ge x-ray laser with two 100 ps duration pulses (a prepulse and main pulse) is investigated using a fluid and atomic physics code coupled to a 3D ray tracing postprocessor code.

Ray-optical refraction with confocal lenslet arrays [PDF]
Two parallel lenslet arrays with focal lengths f1 and f2 that share a common focal plane (that is, which are separated by a distance f1+f2) can refract transmitted light rays according to Snell's law, but with the 'sin's replaced with 'tan's. This is the

RadioPropa - A Modular Raytracer for In-Matter Radio Propagation [PDF]
Experiments for radio detection of UHE particles such as e.g. ARA/ARIANNA or NuMoon require detailed understanding of the propagation of radio waves in the surrounding matter. The index of refraction in e.g.

2D Ray Tracing Analysis of a Dynamic Metasurface Antenna as a Smart Motion Detector
We present a ray-tracing analysis of a smart motion detector based on a dynamically reconfigurable metasurface antenna (DMA). A DMA consists of an array of metamaterial radiators excited by a single-port waveguide or cavity.
