Stokes and Mueller Scattering Matrices

[Under Construction]

     The Stokes vector (or modified Stokes vector) describes the polarization of a plane wave, and the Mueller matrix (or modified Mueller matrix) describes how the polarization changes upon scattering at a change in electrical or magnetic properties.  The Mueller matrix is sometimes called the Stokes matrix or the phase matrix.
