Coefficient derivation

The only source (Detection And Identification Of Visually Obscured Targets) I could find giving the derivation of the coefficients (i.e. in terms of dot products) closely matches what I put in this article, with one exception. In the book there is a minus sign between the terms in the second coefficient. This appears to be a typo. I have verified this with my own derivation in Mathematica, as well as with numerical simulations plotting and testing both definitions. There should be no minus sign between terms for A2. However, there is an overall sign common to all coefficients that could change depending on how you define the r,v and Be vectors. Argentum2f (talk) 21:17, 4 October 2019 (UTC)
