摘要:

It is well known that any classical electromagnetic field obeys the superposition principle—a fact that would seem to preclude the interaction and hence the deflection of light with light in free space. Nevertheless, the permissible phenomenon ofinterferencebetween light waves can be viewed as a type of interaction. It is shown that under certain circumstances it is possible to consistently interpret interference as the specular reflection of two electromagnetic waves off each other in the vacuum.
