Talk:Leonid Isaakovich Mandelshtam
in Russian Raman scattering is called "combination light scattering" (from combination of frequencies). It is difficult to translate correctly , because combinatorial has the flavor and meaning from combinatorics. Again, in Russian combinatorial=kombinatornoe and what is needed is "kombinazionnoe". I will be gald if somebody offers better translation, but combinatorial is almost certainly wrong. Google shows several "combination". I would probably use "combinational", but I thought that "combination" might be an established term.
- You are right, I defer. The case is moot anyway. It appears that whenever a Russian article is translated into English, the term is always translated as Raman scattering. --Gene s 08:23, 14 Jan 2005 (UTC)
