2. 2 - Simply stated, a dispersion relation is the function ω(k) for an harmonic wave. - A dispersion relation connects different properties of the wave such as its energy, frequency, wavelength and wavenumber. - From these relations the phase velocity and group velocity of the wave can be found and thereby refractive index of the medium can be determine. Wave Dispersion

4. Normal dispersion of visible light Shorter (blue) wavelengths refracted more than long (red) wavelengths. Refractive index of blue light > red light.

5. A medium in which phase velocity is frequency dependent is known as a dispersive medium, and a dispersion relation expresses the variation of  as a function of k. Group velocity If a group contains number of components of frequencies which are nearly equal, then:

The electric field at the time t is determined by the position of the charge at an earlier time, when the charge was at r’, the retarded position. 3. First two terms falls off as 1/r’ 2 and hence are of no interest at large distances
