The detection and reconstruction of wavefront by Lateral Shear Interferometer (LSI) and Hartmann Wavefront Sensor (HWS) have been deduced analogically and simulated numerically.
Just as before, by continuously changing the timing of when each wave peak is emitted by each antenna, we can change the angle at which the wavefront is formed, essentially steering the beam in one direction or another.
If the muon was travelling slower than light in the ice, there would be no wavefront, and all the expanding light spheres would destructively interfere with each other, cancelling out to complete darkness.
