Orientation of the Incident Beam in the Target Frame

Under some circumstances, one may wish to specify the target orientation such that tex2html_wrap_inline3545 (the direction of propagation of the radiation) and tex2html_wrap_inline3551 (usually the first polarization direction) and tex2html_wrap_inline3719 (= tex2html_wrap_inline3721 refer to certain directions in the TF. Given the definitions of the LF and TF above, this is simply an exercise in coordinate transformation. For example, one might wish to have the incident radiation propagating along the (1,1,1) direction in the TF (example 14 below). Here we provide some selected examples:

  1. tex2html_wrap_inline3723, tex2html_wrap_inline3725, tex2html_wrap_inline3727 : tex2html_wrap_inline3319, tex2html_wrap_inline3731
  2. tex2html_wrap_inline3723, tex2html_wrap_inline3735, tex2html_wrap_inline3737 : tex2html_wrap_inline3319, tex2html_wrap_inline3741
  3. tex2html_wrap_inline3743, tex2html_wrap_inline3745, tex2html_wrap_inline3747 : tex2html_wrap_inline3689, tex2html_wrap_inline3751, tex2html_wrap_inline3307
  4. tex2html_wrap_inline3743, tex2html_wrap_inline3735, tex2html_wrap_inline3759 : tex2html_wrap_inline3689, tex2html_wrap_inline3751, tex2html_wrap_inline3669
  5. tex2html_wrap_inline3767, tex2html_wrap_inline3745, tex2html_wrap_inline3771 : tex2html_wrap_inline3689, tex2html_wrap_inline3775, tex2html_wrap_inline3307
  6. tex2html_wrap_inline3767, tex2html_wrap_inline3725, tex2html_wrap_inline3783 : tex2html_wrap_inline3689, tex2html_wrap_inline3775, tex2html_wrap_inline3789
  7. tex2html_wrap_inline3791, tex2html_wrap_inline3725, tex2html_wrap_inline3747 : tex2html_wrap_inline3797, tex2html_wrap_inline3799
  8. tex2html_wrap_inline3791, tex2html_wrap_inline3735, tex2html_wrap_inline3771 : tex2html_wrap_inline3797, tex2html_wrap_inline3809
  9. tex2html_wrap_inline3811, tex2html_wrap_inline3745, tex2html_wrap_inline3727 : tex2html_wrap_inline3689, tex2html_wrap_inline3305, tex2html_wrap_inline3307
  10. tex2html_wrap_inline3811, tex2html_wrap_inline3735, tex2html_wrap_inline3783 : tex2html_wrap_inline3689, tex2html_wrap_inline3305, tex2html_wrap_inline3789
  11. tex2html_wrap_inline3835, tex2html_wrap_inline3745, tex2html_wrap_inline3737 : tex2html_wrap_inline3689, tex2html_wrap_inline3775, tex2html_wrap_inline3307
  12. tex2html_wrap_inline3835, tex2html_wrap_inline3725, tex2html_wrap_inline3759 : tex2html_wrap_inline3689, tex2html_wrap_inline3775, tex2html_wrap_inline3669
  13. tex2html_wrap_inline3859, tex2html_wrap_inline3735, tex2html_wrap_inline3863: tex2html_wrap_inline3865, tex2html_wrap_inline3751, tex2html_wrap_inline3669
  14. tex2html_wrap_inline3871, tex2html_wrap_inline3873, tex2html_wrap_inline3875: tex2html_wrap_inline3877, tex2html_wrap_inline3879, tex2html_wrap_inline3881.
