Optical Propagation in Linear Media: Atmospheric Gases and Particles, Solid State Components, and Water (Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratories Series in Science and Engineering)

A typical optical system is composed of three basic components: a source, a detector, and a medium in which the optical energy propagates. This book provides an explanation of this topic. It is useful for researchers, and a textbook for courses like Laser Light Propagation, Solid State Optics, and Optical Propagation in the Atmosphere.
