T. Paszkiewicz et M. Pruchnik, KINETIC DESCRIPTION OF THE PHONON-PULSE PROPAGATION AND PHONON IMAGESOF CRYSTALLINE SOLIDS, Physica. A, 232(3-4), 1996, pp. 747-768
A kinetic description of phonon-pulse propagation and phonon focussing
phenomena is presented. The energy and quasimomentum focussing is con
sidered. The relation between certain features of images of crystallin
e solids and phonon characteristics is discussed. We consider also the
simplest scattering mechanism - interaction of phonons with point mas
s defects.
