1 You have signs of infection, such as: 2  Increased pain, swelling, warmth, or redness around the bite. 3  Red streaks leading from the bite. 4  Pus draining from the bite.  A fever.
A negative index of refraction due to three-dimensional chirality is demonstrated for abilayered metamaterial based on pairs of mutually twisted planar metal patterns in parallel planes, which alsoshows negative electric and magnetic responses and exceptionally strong optical activity and circular dichro-ism.
Refractive index. The refractive index (or index of refraction) of a medium is a measure for how much the speed of light (or other waves such as sound waves) is reduced inside the medium. For example, typical soda-lime glass has a refractive index of 1.5, which means that in glass, light travels at times the speed of light in a vacuum.
