Abstract:
Relations have been derived for the intensity of edge light (boundary wave) propagated from the screen's edge area toward its shadow. The relations were obtained based on the empirical expressions that characterize the deflection angles of edge rays depending on the distance between the initial ray trajectory and the straight edge of a thin screen. A comparison performed with the experimental data proves the validity of the obtained formulas.
