Abstract
WHEN radiation is scattered by a resonator, the question of its identity of frequency and coherence of phase with the incident radiation is not simply answered except for an infinitely narrow incident line, when the scattering is fully coherent (see, for example, the discussion by Heitler1, written in the context of atomic resonances but equally relevant to nuclear ones).
