Like the mass absorption coefficient, it too is a property of the material itself.

Fortunately, mass absorption coefficients are well known and can be calculated.

This is calculated using its dimensions and the absorption coefficients of the walls.

The differences however, are essentially due to the various forms for the emission and absorption coefficients.

The absorption coefficient depends on four factors: the gas, the liquid, temperature, pressure.

The absorption coefficient, in turn, is simply related to several other quantities:

This would have an absorption coefficient of 1.

The x-ray absorption coefficient is usually normalized to unit step height.

The absorption coefficient is related to the dielectric constant (especially complex term).

This is used in order to measure the non-linear absorption coefficient Δα.

Some example shows the negative absorption coefficient that is fundamental presentation of semiconductor laser.

The material medium will have a certain emission coefficient and absorption coefficient.

A fraction of weight, determined by the scattering and absorption coefficients is deposited at the interaction site.

This results in a low absorption coefficient.

Values for the absorption coefficients of several different gases in water at s.t.p. are shown in table 6.1.

Second, not all transitions have the same transition matrix element, absorption coefficient or oscillator strength.

Since intensity is proportional to the square of the electric field, the absorption coefficient becomes .

This is because such specimens (being mostly water) have a low absorption coefficient at this wavelength.

Aerosol total light absorption coefficient (m-1), blue channel.

If scattering is ignored, then a general solution in terms of the emission and absorption coefficients may be written:

For a direct band gap, the absorption coefficient is related to light frequency according to the following formula:

The absorption coefficient, and some closely related derived quantities:

Determining the absolute concentration of a compound requires knowledge of the compound's absorption coefficient.

The absorption coefficient is also sometimes called opacity; see opacity (optics).

Absorption coefficients can be measured using a reverberation room, which is the opposite of an anechoic chamber (see below).

That was already growing warm to the touch after a single bolt; the energy absorption factor was only a little over ninety-eight percent.

Related terms are absorbance, or absorption factor, which is the fraction of radiation absorbed by a sample at a specified wavelength.

Geordi would have recognized it sooner, except the material had basically the same texture and energy absorption factors as the surface below it.

This foam does not contribute to the impact absorption factor of the bumper, but serves as a filler and prevents the thermoplastic fascia from cracking upon impact.

Absorption factors include the mineral's form, the composition of the material enclosing it, the acidity of the stomach and intestine, and the body's actual need for that particular mineral.

However, when the hole dimensions are in the region of 0.05 - 0.5 mm, the narrow absorption peaks become much wider, making the additional fiber absorber more or less unnecessary, while still maintaining a very high absorption factor.
