    Photoacoustic Depth Profiling of Continuously Inhomogeneous Condensed Phases and Application to the Liquid Crystal Octylcyanobiphenyl (8 CB)

    An application is presented of the Hamilton-Jacobi formulation of thermal-wave physics [A. Mandelis, J. Math. Phys. 26, 2676 (1985)] to the problem of photoacoustic depth profiling of inhomogeneous condensed p...
