I Parameters of the rough surface (for electromagnetic scattering)

Click For Summary
The discussion focuses on labeling statistical parameters, specifically sigma (σ) and correlation length (lc), on a schematic representation of a rough surface for a manuscript on electromagnetic scattering. It suggests that σ can be represented as a vertical error bar, while lc can be depicted as a horizontal bar. Participants are looking for clarity on how to effectively illustrate these parameters in their figures. Additionally, links to relevant papers are shared for further reference on the topic. Proper labeling of these parameters is essential for enhancing the understanding of surface roughness in electromagnetic scattering studies.

Dear friends,
I will be grateful if anyone can help me
I study electromagnetic scattering by rough surfaces for a certain case. Each rough surface can be specified with the statistical parameters sigma (σ) and correlation length (lc). while writing my manuscript I drew a schematic representation of a rough surface. one of the reviewers asked me to label these parameters (σ and lc) on the figure. I can't understand how to label these parameters on the figure as they are just statistical parameters that control the surface roughness level. so, can anyone explain to me how to label the statistical parameters of the rough surface?

Thread 'Please Explain Elementary Physics Elevator Question'

Hello, I'm joining this forum to ask two questions which have nagged me for some time. I am in no way trolling. They both are presumed obvious, yet don't make sense to me. Nobody will explain their positions, which is...uh...aka science. I also have a thread for the other question. Yes, I'm questioning the most elementary physics question we're given in this world. The classic elevator in motion question: A person is standing on a scale in an elevator that is in constant motion...
