Preferred Label : Stokes parameters;
IUPAC definition : Of elliptically polarized incident radiation, these are given by \[s_{0} {0} E_{1}
{0} E_{2} {0}\] \[s_{1} {0} E_{1} {0}- E_{2} {0}\] \[s_{2} {0} 2\ \sqrt{E_{1} {0}\
E_{2} {0}}\ \cos Δ {0}\] \[s_{3} {0} 2\ \sqrt{E_{1} {0}\ E_{2} {0}}\ \sin Δ
{0}\] where E1 0 and E2 0 specify the irradiances of the incident light polarized
with their electric vectors vibrating perpendicular and parallel to the scattering,
respectively and δ 0 is the phase difference between these electric vectors.;
