Example gallery#
Choose a topic below. Each runnable script includes its calculation settings, explanations, and figures alongside the code that produces them. Medium volumes and 3D phase surfaces are interactive: drag to rotate, scroll to zoom, and hover to inspect values. Angular curves and diagnostic plots use Matplotlib. Inputs use SI-compatible quantities. Analytical examples describe infinite-medium first-order scattering; numerical Born-series examples describe finite samples.
Keep each separate figure in its own code cell: call plt.show() after
plotting, then insert a # %% separator and narrative comments before
creating the next figure. Multiple axes comparing related data may share a
single figure. This keeps each gallery image beside its plotting code and
displays figures one at a time when running the scripts locally.
Assign each Plotly figure to a named variable so the gallery can embed it.
When running a script, call figure.show(renderer="browser") unless
--no-browser is supplied. The documentation builder uses that argument
and exports the figures with a shared local Plotly library, so the downloaded
documentation works offline. Keep static slices as secondary diagnostic views.
Random media#
Seeded random fields, numerical ensembles, phase functions, and wavelength dependence.
Wavelength dependence of scattering and anisotropy
Theory figure: covariance and simulated random fields
Structured media#
Build spheres, finite layers, and combined structured and random samples. Explore how geometry and relative positions affect directional scattering.
Layers and scatterers with numerical random fluctuations
Theory figure: translation and directional interference
Born orders and interference#
Compare cumulative Born orders and inspect coherent amplitude interference. Field-term diagnostics alone do not certify convergence.
Plotting and saving results#
Plot differential scattering and directional phase functions, then save and restore unitful results with their calculation settings.
Numerical validation#
Check voxel and angular refinement, ensemble sampling uncertainty, and finite-size effects independently.
