#PhysicsFactlet I haven't made a single scientific animation in months. I just don't have the mental space right now.But I am preparing a series of lectures on scattering for the Plasmonica 2026 School (https://www.plasmonica.it/2026school/), and it feels like a good excuse to make a few new ones.This one shows a simple finite element simulation of a pulse scattering on a small dielectric obstacle.#Physics #Optics #Scattering #Diffraction
