DaveE replied to the thread I need a concave mirror with a focal length length of 150 feet?.Just hire a tree guy, dude. Your concave mirror isn't an antigravity device, pieces will still fall, but in a much less controlled... -
DaveE reacted to Line_112's post in the thread I Why are continuously emitting radio pulsars not detected? with
Skeptical.
But in this case we are talking about sources of radio emission that a person cannot see, and a radio telescope does not care whether it... -
I understand now. Thank you!

DaveE replied to the thread Help on reflection of a wave from fixed end without transmission.It doesn't even specify it's a string. Hence my previous comments. This is 99% simple trigonometry and 1% physics. We've done the math...

DaveE replied to the thread Help on reflection of a wave from fixed end without transmission.No, but he was told the reflected wave travelled backwards and was inverted. So, ## \Gamma = -1 ##. My concern would be that he thinks...

DaveE reacted to kuruman's post in the thread Help on reflection of a wave from fixed end without transmission with Like.
You did not verify that what you wrote down is what you want. What you wrote as "opposite direction" is the answer. That's because the...

DaveE replied to the thread Help on reflection of a wave from fixed end without transmission.Careful. This depends on the nature of the problem; the boundary conditions. Reflection coefficients can be positive or negative. I...

DaveE replied to the thread A Advice for 100 MHz resonator.Since you are creating (or can measure) the 100MHz source of the fields, I would try a lock-in amplifier for synchronous detection of...

DaveE replied to the thread A Advice for 100 MHz resonator.This is a distant analogy, but this reminds me of the issues we had decades ago with perfect alignment of the mirrors in laser...

But I thought that the high RF electric field and the relatively high RF magnetic field in the x-y plane (assuming I won't align the...

You don't need any formula to answer this. You need to understand what kind of circuit element the inductor behaves as in each of the...

DaveE replied to the thread A Advice for 100 MHz resonator.SQUIDs are the most sensitive, I think.

DaveE replied to the thread Is MRSA so bad if......Got it. We aren't doctors. We can't help with this sort of problem. In my experience good medical care is a collaborative effort. Good...
