Some notes on multilayer reflectivity [T. Gaetz]

The following are my "notes to myself" made while I was trying to understand multilayers and scattering; among other things, they include nearly verbatim transcriptions of derivations from Jackson's "Classical Electrodynamics" and from de Boer's papers. The discussion is by no means complete, but a number of useful alternative representations of the scattering factors are provided.
