Born orders and interference
============================

Compare cumulative Born orders and inspect coherent amplitude interference.
Field-term diagnostics alone do not certify convergence.

    <div class="sphx-glr-thumbcontainer" tooltip="Compare finite-sample effective scattering coefficients through order three. The numerical ensemble retains amplitude interference and sampling errors. Integrated coefficients describe finite samples rather than an infinite medium. Error bars describe realization sampling, not discretization error. Field-term diagnostics alone do not certify convergence.">

    <div class="sphx-glr-thumbcontainer" tooltip="Cumulative Born scattering sums complex amplitudes before taking their squared magnitude. Adding isolated-term intensities omits the cross terms and produces a different result. This example compares those two operations on the same seeded finite volume and exposes the signed interference.">
