Homework Statement
I came across one problem from Holography which is a subtopic in my DSE Paper(Laser and Fibre Optics) in Bsc. The problem is as follows:

Suppose the reference wave in hologram is given by. Eᵣ = E₀ e^{-i(ωt- k𝓏 - kₙ sin θ)}and the spherical wave emanating from point source is given as
Eₛₚₕ= E₁ e^{-i(ωt- k𝓏 - (kₓ²/2z₀))}
Then find out the resultant intensity in the plate. Show that the condition for maxima in the hologram is given by ∆x = 4λ (Choose θ = 15°)

I've attached what I've done. The intensity part is correct. But I'm confused about the maxima part because the question has specifically asked for
4λ whereas I got nλ. So, should I just put n=4 or is it wrong? I would really appreciate your views and answers. P.S.: Entirely typed in latex, not copied from any book.
Relevant Equations
Resultant Electric Field,
Eᵣ= E₁ + E₂
Intensity, I = |Eᵣ|²

Hi, I had an exam and I completely messed up a problem. Especially one part which was necessary for the rest of the problem. Basically, I have a wormhole metric: $$(ds)^2 = -(dt)^2 + (dr)^2 + (r^2 + b^2)( (d\theta)^2 + sin^2 \theta (d\phi)^2 )$$ Where ##b=1## with an orbit only in the equatorial plane. We also know from the question that the orbit must satisfy this relationship: $$\varepsilon = \frac{1}{2} (\frac{dr}{d\tau})^2 + V_{eff}(r)$$ Ultimately, I was tasked to find the initial...
The value of H equals ## 10^{3}## in natural units, According to : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natural_units, ## t \sim 10^{-21} sec = 10^{21} Hz ##, and since ## \text{GeV} \sim 10^{24} \text{Hz } ##, ## GeV \sim 10^{24} \times 10^{-21} = 10^3 ## in natural units. So is this conversion correct? Also in the above formula, can I convert H to that natural units , since it’s a constant, while keeping k in Hz ?
