- If two light rays of luminous intensities I_1 and I_2 are in the
- same direction and are a small distance x apart, what would be the
- apparent total intensity to an observer a long distance away?
-
- Is it simply I_total = I_1 + I_2 ?
-
-
- (Ignoring losses in intensity as the light rays traverses thru space)

- Thanks.
