Unconstrained partial-wave amplitudes obtained at discrete energies from fits to complete sets of experimental data may not vary smoothly with energy, and are in principle non-unique. We demonstrate how this behavior can be ascribed to the…

A perfectly collimated beam can be spread out by multiple scattering, creating a speckle pattern and increasing the etendue of the system. Standard optical systems conserve etendue, and thus are unable to reverse the process by transforming…
