In chiral light, the direction of oscillation of the electromagnetic wave, known as the polarization, rotates clockwise or counterclockwise.
This experimental study investigated the effect of frequency, magnitude and direction of oscillation on the postural stability of standing subjects and whether response to rotational oscillation can be predicted from knowledge of response to translational oscillation.
The solid black arrow indicates the direction of the tip movement, and the dashed black arrow shows the direction of oscillation of the tip (a).
The direction of oscillation of the electric components from an ensemble of atoms is usually chaotic and uncorrelated, producing unpolarized radiation.
Also, from the Schweizer study one can conclude that the direction of oscillation was established by width and length of flat lipid patches, so the curvature of the present chambers is probably not playing a role in the present oscillations.
A number of puzzling optical effects, first observed in the mid-17th century, were resolved when light was understood as a wave phenomenon and the directions of its oscillations were uncovered.
In [3], such receptive profiles were studied in terms of two dimensionless indexes of shape ( n x, n y ) corresponding to the product of the frequency of the oscillation and the sizes of the window in the direction of the oscillation and in the orthogonal one, showing that the distribution of such feature on V1 simple cells of macaque monkeys is confined to a specific region.
They are often addressed in literature as the L (longitudinal) and T (transverse) resonance corresponding to the direction of plasmonic oscillations in the rod [59].
There may or may not be a preferred spatial direction, correlations in step size, persistence in direction of motion, oscillations in the velocity, etc.
