Low-loss bireflectant (double-reflection) polarization prism

Applied Optics, 1986
A novel, wide spectral range, low-loss polarizing prism based on the bireflectance (double-reflection) phenomenon in birefringent crystals is demonstrated. The bireflectant polarization prism is useful especially for polarizing a collimated beam in systems where large-aperture, large-acceptance angle, or high-radiation damage threshold are essential.

Many of the details surrounding the circumstances when shareholders can sue are shrouded in obscurity, but it is clear that where a company and a shareholder have overlapping claims the shareholder cannot pursue its personal claim if its loss is merely reflective of the company’s loss.

The reflected normal loss function

Canadian Journal of Statistics, 1993
AbstractThe use of loss functions in quality assurance has grown steadily with the introduction of Taguchi's philosophy. The quadratic loss function has been used by decision‐theoretic statisticians and economists for many years. Taguchi uses a modified form of the quadratic loss function to demonstrate the need to consider proximity to the target ...

Reconstructing the reflective loss principle

Journal of Corporate Law Studies, 2016
ABSTRACTWhen a company suffers loss due to a wrongful act perpetrated against the company, the company’s shareholders suffer where the value of their shares or dividends decreases. However, in the UK and in Commonwealth jurisdictions, such shareholders have in principle no personal recourse against the wrongdoer because their loss is merely ‘reflective’

Does Follow-Up Loss Reflect Poor Outcome?

Evaluation & the Health Professions, 1979
Loss of follow-up information regarding the adjustment of people who have received mental health services has been a troublesome problem when comparing the effectiveness of different treatment programs. The primary concern has been that a low response rate may indicate that patients are adjusting poorly.

Reflection losses from imperfectly broken fiber ends

Applied Optics, 1975
This paper presents an approximate theory for determining the reflection losses in multimode fibers that terminate in end surfaces that are not strictly perpendicular to the fiber axis. This theory is also applicable to tilts and covers step index as well as parabolic index fibers.

Reflective Loss Regulation: A Czech Anomaly

European Business Organization Law Review, 2017
Over the past 25 years, (minority) shareholders in Czech companies have been continuously seeking remedies for various wrongdoings they perceived to be caused by the failure of the company’s directors to act with due care (and/or as a result of a breach of their statutory duty of loyalty) in order to utilize not only the already well-established ...
