Scattering of Waves

Auteur

D. N. Ghosh Roy received his doctorate from Northwestern University, Evanston, Ill., U. S. A., for work on spectroscopic plasma diagnostic. He subsequently worked on stimulated light scattering and nonlinear Lightwave interaction. Since then, his areas of activity have been scattering and inverse scattering of waves. He has taught in the U. S. and conducted research at various academic research institutes in the U. S. and Europe. His current research interests are Huygen's principle and evanescent waves. The author is presently affiliated with the Department of Radiology and Imaging, University of Utah, Salt Lake City, Utah, USA.
