Difference between Attenuation coefficient and Attenuation length

Attenuation coefficient vs. Attenuation length

Attenuation coefficient or narrow beam attenuation coefficient of the volume of a material characterizes how easily it can be penetrated by a beam of light, sound, particles, or other energy or matter. In physics, the attenuation length or absorption length is the distance \lambda into a material when the probability has dropped to 1/e that a particle has not been absorbed.

Similarities between Attenuation coefficient and Attenuation length

Attenuation coefficient and Attenuation length have 5 things in common (in Unionpedia): Absorption (electromagnetic radiation), Attenuation, Beer–Lambert law, Mean free path, Radiation length.

Absorption (electromagnetic radiation)

In physics, absorption of electromagnetic radiation is the way in which the energy of a photon is taken up by matter, typically the electrons of an atom.

Attenuation

In physics, attenuation or, in some contexts, extinction is the gradual loss of flux intensity through a medium.

Beer–Lambert law

The Beer–Lambert law, also known as Beer's law, the Lambert–Beer law, or the Beer–Lambert–Bouguer law relates the attenuation of light to the properties of the material through which the light is travelling.

Mean free path

In physics, the mean free path is the average distance traveled by a moving particle (such as an atom, a molecule, a photon) between successive impacts (collisions), which modify its direction or energy or other particle properties.

Radiation length

In physics, the radiation length is a characteristic of a material, related to the energy loss of high energy, electromagnetic-interacting particles with it.
