The problem of a plane-wave refection from a system of parallel-plane layers with periodical& valying refractive index Is solved. Simple analytical expressions that define extreme point positions under the assumption of small variations in refactive index are obtained.
The forces in packed granular materials are distributed very differently than those in "normal" solids. Forces much larger than the mean occur, but are exponentially rare. These force inhomogeneities can be understood using an exactly solvable statistical model, in which the fluctuations in the forc
