This is wrong it is a scalar. Wave vector is a vector and its magnitude (a scalar) relates to the wavelength as indicated. <br /> It is just plain math basics and is wrong, vectors can not be divided, only their moduli can.<br /> Jean-Luc would be horrified by this himself and probably does not remember writing this. <br /> <br /> Bernard Kippelin 9/29<br /> <br /> <br /> There is a need for vectors on &quot;c&quot; and on all &quot;lambdas&quot;<br /> <br /> Also, all &quot;n&quot; and &quot;v&quot; should be replaced with the greek letter &quot;nu&quot;<br /> <br /> Jean Luc 10/3</div>
