Summary

The light scattering properties of certain regular polyhedral particles in theRayleigh-Gans region are considered. The particle scattering factors are derived for dispersions of square pyramids and dispersions of octahedra, oriented at random to the incident beam. Numerical results are presented both for the average scattering factor and for the average 45° dissymmetry of arrays of such particles.

Zusammenfassung

Es wurde die Lichtstreuung pyramidenförmiger und oktaedrischer Teilchen imRayleigh-Gans-Bereich untersucht und Ausdrücke für den Teilchen-Streufaktor bei statistischer Orientierung solcher Teilchen abgeleitet. Für den mittleren Teilchen-Streufaktor und für die mittlere Dissymmetrie wurden numerische Ergebnisse angegeben.
