I Parameters of the rough surface (for electromagnetic scattering)

AI Thread 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 'Gauss' law seems to imply instantaneous electric field'
Imagine a charged sphere at the origin connected through an open switch to a vertical grounded wire. We wish to find an expression for the horizontal component of the electric field at a distance ##\mathbf{r}## from the sphere as it discharges. By using the Lorenz gauge condition: $$\nabla \cdot \mathbf{A} + \frac{1}{c^2}\frac{\partial \phi}{\partial t}=0\tag{1}$$ we find the following retarded solutions to the Maxwell equations If we assume that...
I passed a motorcycle on the highway going the opposite direction. I know I was doing 125/km/h. I estimated that the frequency of his motor dropped by an entire octave, so that's a doubling of the wavelength. My intuition is telling me that's extremely unlikely. I can't actually calculate how fast he was going with just that information, can I? It seems to me, I have to know the absolute frequency of one of those tones, either shifted up or down or unshifted, yes? I tried to mimic the...
