Law of reflection, Snell’s law and the Goos-Hänchen effect: an approach from a corpuscular model of light

In this article we use Einstein’s model that treats light in its corpuscular behavior to determine the laws of reflection and refraction. For total internal reflection we predict the Goos-Hanchen shift.
