THE INVERSE PROBLEM IN THE QUANTUM THEORY OF SCATTERING

Abstract

The problem is studied of determining information about a medium from which an electromagnetic wave is reflected, given a knowledge of the reflection coefficient. Similar questions concerning scattering phenomena in other branches of physics, e.g., in quantum mechanics, can be investigated by means of the same theory. (Author)
