S-polarization (the s stems from the German word senkrecht meaning perpendicular) and P-polarization (the p means parallel) are the two main ways to describe two types of linearly polarized light. A primary misconception when using the terms is assuming that P is always vertical and S is always horizontal. This is not true. P and S are relative to a surface (usually the surface that the light is acting upon and/or reflecting from). See similar questions...

S&P polarization refers to the plane in which the electric field of a light wave is oscillating. S-Polarization is the plane of polarization perpendicular to the page (coming out of the monitor screen). P-polarization is the plane of polarization parallel to the page (in the plane of the monitor screen). See similar questions...

For ATR, it is well-known that the effective thickness for p-polarized light is nearly twice that for s-polarized light at a 45? incident angle. Thus the band intensities measured for a given sample with p-polarized light should be approximately twice that recorded for s-polarization. For details, please see our applications note on Correlating the Polarizer Indicator to S- and P-Polarization Via ATR. See similar questions...

One '' '' character. There are some trivial differences having to do with the distinction between a pointer to a constant, and a constant pointer, but since you can cast either to a (char *) it hardly matters. Can I declare main as void, to shut off these annoying ''main returns no value'' messages? (I'm calling exit(), so main doesn't return.) Certainly. You can also declare it as double.

Radio signals travel polarized or oriented vertically, horizontally, circularly or in combinations of these. In cellular and most commercial applications signals are vertically polarized. Your cellular mobile antenna on the car is vertically polarized, for example. Your Yagi must be installed with its elements vertically polarized too. See similar questions...

The P, A, S, and M modes are the Advanced Shooting modes. These are essentially non-AUTO modes that allow the photographer more creative control by enabling more control over shutter speed and f-stop settings. The Advanced Shooting modes also allow total access to the menu options. They are also the modes required for use with E-System flash accessories. See similar questions...

Opers with +P cannot be kicked by opers with +p, even if you set +p to be a higher level in the channel than +P. You can give +P different onjoin modes than +p, effectively giving an oper with HighProt (+P) higher privileges (or lower, if you want) than an oper with LowProt (+p). See similar questions...

When a lens is polarized, it blocks scattered wavelengths of light, reducing and absorbing multiple reflections from other surfaces by canceling light that vibrates in one plane. Polarized lenses are very useful for activities on the water such as boating and fishing. See similar questions...

PEMs have several unique features such as wide spectral range, large aperture, wide acceptance angle, and high precision of phase modulation. The PEM is typically used for fast, high sensitivity measurements. Fused silica PEM optical elements are isotropic when no stress is applied (as contrasted to Pockels cells and electro-optic modulators). This gives the PEM a large acceptance angle.

Our DAY-TRADERS HOTLINE (6 calls per day) is for traders who want trade that last for just a few hours and for those who want more frequent updates to our daily service. Because these markets move so fast and require intraday instructions in order to find good entries and exits for swing trades and day trades. The S&P Hotline is intended as an adjunct to the Fortucast Financial Timer, which is published nightly for markets of the next day. Some of Mr. See similar questions...

P and S Drive archiving provides a way for older files to remain accessible via P and S drive, whilst also freeing up space on these drives. The archive process will move files selected for archiving, to the archive server and a link will remain on P or S drive to enable easy access to the archived file. It is designed to maintain a central area for archived data that is secure and backed up. The process will be fairly transparent to the user. See similar questions...

The S & P 500 is an index that consists of the stock of 500 companies that reflect the broad base of the American economy. The list of companies is made up primarily of industrial firms (approximately 80%) and the remainder covers financial, transportation and utility stocks. The index is widely regarded as the performance benchmark of American industry. See similar questions...
