The diffraction pattern produced by a plane wave (i.e., a perfectly uniform wavefront) scattering from an infinite hard edge is well-described by the Fresnel integral [1]. Such one-dimensional (1D) edge waves [see Fig. 1(a)] turn out to be truly elem... Read More about Diffraction of fractal light: New frontiers for the mathematics of edge waves.
