***Gauss (Pole)***

On this page the phenomenological approximation by pole functions of the plane wave reflection and transmission is used. For more details see the reference S. M. Loktev et al. of used sources in ***Introduction***. The user is able to make a decision about what type of resonance is applicable to his situation: single or double. The other possibilities of this page are analogous to the ***[Gauss (FFT)](https://mcgrating.com/docs/common/gauss-fft.html)*** page with one exception: this page does not contain any intrinsic checking of the input parameters.

From the in-application help of Modal Collinear and Modal Conical, documented through 2018. If you publish results computed with MC Grating, see [how to cite it](https://mcgrating.com/references.html#cite).
