Hello
I have to prove that the intensity of seidel point is equal to
##I_{sp}=\frac{8}{\pi^2} I_o##

I didn't get any other information only that there is an integration in this prove.
Hope you can help me.
It is enough for me if you only give me link or the name of this prove.

I Googled Seidel point intensity and got no hits, so I have no idea what the subject matter is.
Is it to do with optical aberration? Can you define a Seidel point for us? Are there any other names by which it might be known? Can you post a link?
 
Yes we have this homework in optics.
I didn't get any useful information. But the subject is about spectroscope.
Maybe this will help?

If you have not been taught anything about Seidel points then I do not understand how you are expected to answer this question.
 
We will get the information at Monday if nobody can solve this prove.
I thought someone in this forum may know something about this question and step by step get the prove solved.
 
Thread 'Need help understanding this figure on energy levels'
This figure is from "Introduction to Quantum Mechanics" by Griffiths (3rd edition). It is available to download. It is from page 142. I am hoping the usual people on this site will give me a hand understanding what is going on in the figure. After the equation (4.50) it says "It is customary to introduce the principal quantum number, ##n##, which simply orders the allowed energies, starting with 1 for the ground state. (see the figure)" I still don't understand the figure :( Here is...
Thread 'Understanding how to "tack on" the time wiggle factor'
The last problem I posted on QM made it into advanced homework help, that is why I am putting it here. I am sorry for any hassle imposed on the moderators by myself. Part (a) is quite easy. We get $$\sigma_1 = 2\lambda, \mathbf{v}_1 = \begin{pmatrix} 0 \\ 0 \\ 1 \end{pmatrix} \sigma_2 = \lambda, \mathbf{v}_2 = \begin{pmatrix} 1/\sqrt{2} \\ 1/\sqrt{2} \\ 0 \end{pmatrix} \sigma_3 = -\lambda, \mathbf{v}_3 = \begin{pmatrix} 1/\sqrt{2} \\ -1/\sqrt{2} \\ 0 \end{pmatrix} $$ There are two ways...
