reciprocal length





























reciprocal length or inverse length is a measurement used in several branches of science and mathematics. as the reciprocal of length, common units used for this measurement include the reciprocal metre or inverse metre (symbol: m), the reciprocal centimetre or inverse centimetre (symbol: cm), and, in optics, the dioptre.





























quantities measured in reciprocal length include:





























bullet::::- absorption coefficient or attenuation coefficient, in materials science





























bullet::::- curvature of a line, in mathematics





























bullet::::- gain, in laser physics





























bullet::::- magnitude of vectors in reciprocal space, in crystallography





























bullet::::- more generally any spatial frequency e.g. in cycles per unit length

reciprocal distribution





























in probability and statistics, the reciprocal distribution, also known as the log-uniform distribution, is a continuous probability distribution. it is characterised by its probability density function, within the support of the distribution, being proportional to the reciprocal of the variable.





























the reciprocal distribution is an example of an inverse distribution, and the reciprocal (inverse) of a random variable with a reciprocal distribution itself has a reciprocal distribution.
