Description for Light Scattering Reviews
Hardback. Focusing on radiative transfer and optics of highly reflective objects, this volume presents an up-to-date review of modern light scattering theory. Numerical techniques in single and multiple light scattering are covered, as well as theoretical experiments. Editor(s): Kokhanovsky, Alexander. Series: Springer Praxis Books / Environmental Sciences. Num Pages: 549 pages, biography. BIC Classification: PHVG; RBP; RGY; TQ. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly. Dimension: 240 x 170 x 36. Weight in Grams: 1249.
Light scattering by densely packed inhomogeneous media is a particularly ch- lenging optics problem. In most cases, only approximate methods are used for the calculations. However, in the case where only a small number of macroscopic sc- tering particles are in contact (clusters or aggregates) it is possible to obtain exact results solving Maxwell’s equations. Simulations are possible, however, only for a relativelysmallnumberofparticles,especiallyiftheirsizesarelargerthanthewa- length of incident light. The ?rst review chapter in PartI of this volume, prepared by Yasuhiko Okada, presents modern numerical techniques used for the simulation of optical characteristics of densely packed groups of spherical particles.
