Integral scatter characteristics

Soviet Physics Journal Aims and scope

Abstract

The calculated integral scatter characteristics for monodisperse scattering media serve as the basis for determining the ranges of relative sizes of scattering particles within which the shape of the optical scatter characteristics depends uniquely on the refractive index and the absorptivity of these particles. As a result, the ranges of particle sizes where the integral indicatrix becomes most sensitive to variations in absorptivity are found to coincide with the minima of the corresponding scatter coefficient as a function of the diffraction parameter.
