THE TRANSFORMATION OF A BEAM DURING INTERACTION OF LIGHT WITH A SUBSTANCE,

Abstract

The transformation of the tensor of a light beam during Rayleigh scattering and the elementary volume of a luminescent substance, a luminescent crystal and during Fresnal reflection and refraction of light is considered. It is shown that the proposed covariant method is considerably more rapid and leads to the required results more simply than when Stokes parameters are used. (Author)
