Numerical simulations of negative-index refraction in wedge-shaped metamaterials [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
A wedge-shaped structure made of split-ring resonators (SRR) and wires is numerically simulated to evaluate its refraction behavior. Four frequency bands, namely, the stop band, left-handed band, ultralow-index band, and positive-index band, are ...

بواعث الانكسار في شعر محمد بن عمار الأندلسي The motives of refraction in the poetry of Muhammad ibn Ammar al-Andalusi

open access: yesJournal Of Babylon Center For Humanities Studies, 2021
The motivation to say poetry among the poets is variable and not fixed, according to the poet’s psychological state, fluctuations and poetic moment, and according to the poet’s environment and way of life, and the life situations that he faces in which ...

Optical coherence refraction tomography

open access: yesNature Photonics, 2019
Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a cross-sectional, micrometre-scale imaging modality with widespread clinical application. Typical OCT systems sacrifice lateral resolution to achieve long depths of focus for bulk tissue imaging, and therefore tend ...

Refraction in exoplanet atmospheres: Photometric signatures, implications for transmission spectroscopy, and search in Kepler data

open access: yes, 2017
Refraction deflects photons that pass through atmospheres, which affects transit light curves. Refraction thus provides an avenue to probe physical properties of exoplanet atmospheres and to constrain the presence of clouds and hazes.

Implications of Atmospheric Differential Refraction for Adaptive Optics Observations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Many adaptive optics systems operate by measuring the distortion of the wavefront in one wavelength range and performing the scientific observations in a second, different wavelength range.
