Hi,

Does complex refraction angle have any limitation on its real or imaginary part?
Does one of these part have to be positive or negative only?

Thanks,
Elad

Hey @elad, I guess the real and imaginary parts can be anything, really. Some numbers can be positive, and some can be negative. It depends on what you're looking at. What’s the context for these angles?
