Homework Statement
We have a parallel, transparent plate. The plate has an incidence of refraction that is dependent on a transverse coordinate. (i.e. the plate is perpendicular to z direction, and the refractive index changes along x direction)
n(x) = 1.5/(1 - x/0.13)
It is observed...
My apologies if I wasn't clear, but my motivation for doing an MSc or PhD is primarily coming from my want to learn more physics. However, apart from my interests in physics, there is the practical concern of my career options. Further, this concern is not entirely motivated by money; personal...
I'm currently a third year physics undergraduate student at the University of Toronto --which is respectable as far as Canadian schools go. My marks are decent: 3.83 GPA of almost exclusively physics and math courses. I have recently been looking carefully at the realities of working towards a...
