Demonstrational Optics [E-Book] : Part 1: Wave and Geometrical Optics / by Oleg Marchenko, Sergei Kazantsev, Laurentius Windholz.
Demonstrational Optics presents a new didactical approach to the study of optics. Emphasizing the importance of elaborate new experimental demonstrations, pictorial illustrations, computer simulations and models of optical phenomena in order to ensure a deeper understanding of the general and statis...
