An Instrument for In Situ Measuring the Volume Scattering Function of Water: Design, Calibration and Primary Experiments [PDF]
The optical volume scattering function (VSF) of seawater is a fundamental property used in the calculation of radiative transfer for applications in the study of the upper-ocean heat balance, the photosynthetic productivity of the ocean, and the chemical

Inversion of Volume Scattering Function for Estimation of Bubble Size Distribution in Ocean Waters [PDF]
Angular distribution of the intensity of light scattered by a spherical air bubble in the oceanic medium is distinctive near the critical scattering angle region, when light interacts with a bubble with a refractive index less than its surrounding medium.

Measurements of Aquatic Particle Volume Scattering Function up to 178.5° in the East China Sea
Particulate volume scattering function (VSF), especially at angles larger than 170°, is of particular importance for interpreting ocean optical remote sensing signals and underwater imagery.

Volume scattering function measured in the oceans and lakes (2009–2024)
Volume scattering function (VSF) is a fundamental inherent optical property but has been scarcely measured in natural environments. To address this observational gap, we compiled a dataset of non‐water, particle VSFs (βp) measured in a variety of waters,

Particle scattering is a key factor affecting underwater light transport. The diffusion length (zD), defined as 1/[b(1 − g)], where b is the scattering coefficient and g is the asymmetry factor, is obtained from the volume scattering function (VSF) of ...

A scattering function of star polymers including excluded volume effects
This work presents a new model for the form factor of a star polymer consisting of self-avoiding branches. This new model incorporates excluded volume effects and is derived from the two-point correlation function for a star polymer. This model is compared with small-angle neutron scattering measurements from polystyrene stars immersed in a good ...

Direct measurements of the backscattering coefficient bb require the determination of the Volume Scattering Function (VSF) and its integration over a backward hemisphere. In sea water they are difficult and are therefore carried out very rarely.

Biogeochemical origins of particles obtained from the inversion of the volume scattering function and spectral absorption in coastal waters [PDF]
In the aquatic environment, particles can be broadly separated into phytoplankton (PHY), non-algal particle (NAP) and dissolved (or very small particle, VSP) fractions.
