Tossup

This property is scrambled to avoid damaging erbium-doped amplifiers through hole-burning. A scope partly named for this property can detect isoclinic fringes and fringes with a constant principal stress difference and has a simple form called a Savart (“suh-VAHR”) plate. Conrad Schlumberger discovered an imaging technique named for the induced form of this property. A technique named (-5[1])for this property can determine glucose concentration by finding the 16 entries of the Mueller matrix. The projection of the magnetic (10[1])field (10[1])along the direction of light propagation (10[2])is proportional to a change in this property (10[2])in the (10[1])Faraday effect. (10[2])Malus’s (10[1])law (10[2])states (10[1])the (10[1])relationship (10[2])between (10[1])intensity and this property, (10[3])which is imparted by Nicol (“NICK-le”) prisms. (10[1])Brewster’s angle is sometimes named after, for 10 points, what property of light that is its direction of oscillation? (10[1])■END■ (10[2])
