This image is not correct. It does not show refraction of the transmitted rays, and for some reflected rays, the angle of reflection is not the angle of incidence. I will try to make a correct figure to replace this one. /Pieter Kuiper (talk) 08:18, 23 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I apologise for the inaccuracy of the figure - I based it off another one, and presumed the author of that knew what he was doing ;). You're more than welcome to submit a hand-drawn sketch or similar - if I can make it out, I'll happily correct the figure. Lasse Havelund (p) (t) 20:01, 23 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, I saw that it was in the original .png file. I uploaded a new svg-file, with angles calculated for n = 1.5. Feel free to modify! /Pieter Kuiper (talk) 23:16, 23 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Excellent; the figure is a bit confusing at the moment. I'll put fixing it on my to-do list to make it, you know, a bit more obvious which line is which, etc. Good work! :) Lasse Havelund (p) (t) 06:47, 27 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I tried to clarify things a bit. Now there is also a rough indication of intensities. /Pieter Kuiper (talk) 10:31, 8 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
