This scientific phenomenon helps explain Fata Morgana. The Fresnel equations describe this phenomenon's relationship to reflectance and polarization. Certain classes of metamaterials can have a negative value for a number associated with this phenomenon. A law describing this phenomenon was derived by Fermat from his principle of least time, and that law indicates that the
This scientific phenomenon helps explain Fata Morgana. The Fresnel equations describe this phenomenon's relationship to reflectance and polarization. Certain classes of metamaterials can have a negative value for a number associated with this phenomenon. A law describing this phenomenon was derived by Fermat from his principle of least time, and that law indicates that the ratio of phase velocities in two media are proportional to the sine of the angle of incidence to this phenomenon's namesake angle. For 10 points, name this optics phenomenon described by Snell's Law, in which light bends because of a change in medium.
