Abstract A comprehensive overview of the basic principles of radar polarimetry is presented. The relevant fundamental field equations are first provided. The importance of the propagation and scattering behavior in various frequency bands, the electrodynamic foundations such as Maxwell’s equations, the Helmholtz vector wave equation and especially the fundamental laws of polarization will first...

We developed a method to image myocardial fiber architecture in the mouse heart using a Jones matrix-based polarization-sensitive optical coherence tomography (PSOCT) system. The "cross-helical" laminar structure of myocardial fibers can be clearly visualized using this technology. The obtained myocardial fiber organization agrees well with existing knowledge acquired using conventional histolo...

A depolarization scalar metric for Mueller matrices, named Q(M), is derived from the degree of polarization. Q(M) has been recently reported, and it has been deduced from the nine bilinear constraints between the sixteen elements of the Mueller-Jones matrix. We discuss the relations between Q(M) and the depolarization index.

The present study is a theoretical calculation for the effects of high pressure on thermodynamic properties GaN up to 40Gpa at room temperature. Volume compression ratio (V0/Vp), lattice constant (a) and elastic bulk modulus(B) have been established. Furthermore, frequencies disruptions function by analyzing phonon frequency spectrum (PFS) (0 K). entire calculations rely using two equation stat...
