Homework Statement


Hi. I'm attempting to find the fringe visibility of an interference pattern from a diffraction grating, using MATLAB. I have an image of this pattern, and have used the following code so far in MATLAB:
Code:
myimage = imread('IMG_0166.JPG')
image = rgb2gray(myimage);
imshow(image)
I'm struggling to find a way in which i can go about obtaining the intensity values from this image.

Homework Equations


The fringe visibility is given by:
Visibility = (Imax-Imin)/(Imax+Imin)

The Attempt at a Solution


Above.

Any help would be appreciated,

Thanks.

Hi, I had an exam and I completely messed up a problem. Especially one part which was necessary for the rest of the problem. Basically, I have a wormhole metric: $$(ds)^2 = -(dt)^2 + (dr)^2 + (r^2 + b^2)( (d\theta)^2 + sin^2 \theta (d\phi)^2 )$$ Where ##b=1## with an orbit only in the equatorial plane. We also know from the question that the orbit must satisfy this relationship: $$\varepsilon = \frac{1}{2} (\frac{dr}{d\tau})^2 + V_{eff}(r)$$ Ultimately, I was tasked to find the initial...
The value of H equals ## 10^{3}## in natural units, According to : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natural_units, ## t \sim 10^{-21} sec = 10^{21} Hz ##, and since ## \text{GeV} \sim 10^{24} \text{Hz } ##, ## GeV \sim 10^{24} \times 10^{-21} = 10^3 ## in natural units. So is this conversion correct? Also in the above formula, can I convert H to that natural units , since it’s a constant, while keeping k in Hz ?
