material scattering coefficients should return a wave

Open arturgower opened this issue 3 years ago • 0 comments

There are several functions that return the coefficients of a wave basis as a final result. For example, scattering coefficients from a sphere, or the reflection coefficient from a halfspace. Instead, these functions should return a canonical wave which is the scattered wave. This would questions like: what phase should the reflected wave have? What kind of basis should these coefficients have (may potential have azimuth symmetry).
