26. In Refs. 15-18 the ratio of the rigorous solution to the NIS solution was used to show the magnitude of specular resonance. However, in this paper we discuss their difference rather than their ratio. This is because the ratio can have a meaninglessly large value when the NIS amplitude is very small and is not a good measure of the magnitude of the specular resonance, in which the brightness of the ray rather than the degree of enhancement is important.
