    Undergrad Understanding for group velocity and phase velocity?

    i still have a question, if we put a generater and detecter on both sides of a, say cubic-like, material, with size say,a*a*a, then the time we measured from the generator to the detecter would really be different from a/Co ?

    Undergrad Understanding for group velocity and phase velocity?

    thanks, but if you don't mind, could you tell me how the velocity of intersection points are related to the phase velocity?

    Undergrad Understanding for group velocity and phase velocity?

    thanks for reply, but i don't understand this: v_g/c = (Compton wavelength of particle)/(deBroglie wavelength of particle) and the reciprocal of this is equal to v_p/c. how could the left-hand-side ratio and right-hand-side ratio(p/mc) be linked? could you show me the duduction or some...

    Undergrad Understanding for group velocity and phase velocity?

    jsut one more question, can you show me the meaning of shutter-down?i'm not sure so see that the pulses can't be used to send messages faster than light in vacuum. thanks!

    Undergrad Understanding for group velocity and phase velocity?

    understanding for group velocity and phase velocity?? Hi, everyone. I learned physics for 3 years, but up to now I still cannot understand clearly the difference between the group & phase velocity. What is exatly "phase"? and what is exactly "group". From book I read the Vph corresponds to the...

    Question about reducible presentation

    1.hi, everyone. here's the question :BF3 is a planar four-atomic molecule. For simplicity, we ignore the degrees of freedom in the z-axis (principal axis). a) Find the reducible representation for a base consisting of the 8 unit vectors with origin at each atom, being parallel to the x and y...
