Scattering, coherent and incoherent

To an incident beam of neutrons the atoms of chorine are a random mixture of Cl and Cl. We calculate the proportions of neutrons scattered coherently and incoherently from chlorine (75% Cl, 25% Cl) with coherent scattering lengths, icoh (m) from Appendix 1. The average scattering length, which provides the coherent signal, is... 

Quasi-elastic Neutron Scattering. Coherent and incoherent inelastic neutron scattering are unique experimental techniques to characterize molecular motions on a time scale between 10 and 10 s. The continued development of high resolution inelastic scattering techniques in the past two decades (157-159) enables measurement of the dynamic structure factor S(Q, co) and the... 

Coloration can be physical or chemical (pigmentary) or a combination, and biomimetic versions of the principles involved are contributing to textiles, plastics, and camouflage systems. There are several types of physical coloration, loosely classified as scattering (coherent and incoherent), diffraction, and interference. They can...
