Wrong Snell's Law
The previous post "Not Snell's Law" dated 03 Jan 2018 is wrong.
Notice the swap
λ
i
↔
a
.
a
∗
s
i
n
(
θ
i
)
+
λ
i
c
o
s
(
θ
i
)
=
O
C
=
λ
r
t
a
n
(
1
2
θ
r
)
λ
i
λ
r
a
λ
i
∗
s
i
n
(
θ
i
)
+
1
c
o
s
(
θ
i
)
=
1
t
a
n
(
1
2
θ
r
)
If
a
λ
i
≈
1
ie a torus with a small hole,
λ
i
λ
r
s
i
n
(
θ
i
)
+
1
c
o
s
(
θ
i
)
=
1
t
a
n
(
1
2
θ
r
)
which is the same as before. Wrong!
