SUMMARY
The discussion centers on the impact of scatterer size and spacing on sound wave reflection, specifically when scatterers are closer than the wavelength and moving at different velocities. Participants emphasize the importance of understanding the underlying physics and encourage sharing of prior research to facilitate deeper discussions. The initial poster mistakenly categorized the inquiry as postgraduate level, later correcting it to undergraduate level, indicating a need for foundational knowledge in wave behavior and scattering principles.
