Comparison of the spectral-angular properties of light scattered in the Baltic Sea and oil emulsions [PDF]
Journal of the European Optical Society-Rapid Publications, 2014 Angular distributions of scattered light, which are described by one of two forms, i.e. the Volume Scattering Function (VSF) or the phase function, are the least-known optical properties of seawater.

Angular scattering of the Sahara dust aerosol [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2018 Soil erosion aerosols can be transported considerable distances, the Sahara being one of the major sources in the world. In June 2016 the volume scattering function of the atmospheric aerosol was determined in the Sierra Nevada, Spain, at an altitude of ...

The volume scattering function of natural bubble populations [PDF]
Limnology and Oceanography, 2002 The volume scattering function (VSF) of natural bubble populations is (1) determined from Mie scattering theory, (2) measured by a newly designed volume scattering meter in the laboratory, and (3) inferred from field observations of the VSF. The laboratory measurements have confirmed our theoretical prediction in that (1) bubbles of sizes that have ...

Luminosity Functions and Host-to-host Scatter of Dwarf Satellite Systems in the Local Volume [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2021 Abstract Low-mass satellites around Milky Way (MW)-like galaxies are important probes of small-scale structure and galaxy formation. However, confirmation of satellite candidates with distance measurements remains a key barrier to fast progress in the Local Volume (LV).

Scattering amplitudes from finite-volume spectral functions [PDF]
Physical Review D, 2019 A novel proposal is outlined to determine scattering amplitudes from finite-volume spectral functions. The method requires extracting smeared spectral functions from finite-volume Euclidean correlation functions, with a particular complex smearing kernel of width $ε$ which implements the standard $iε$-prescription.

Sensitivity analysis of volume scattering phase functions
Optics Express, 2016 To solve the radiative transfer equation and relate inherent optical properties (IOPs) to apparent optical properties (AOPs), knowledge of the volume scattering phase function is required. Due to the difficulty of measuring the phase function, it is frequently approximated.

Chlorophyll-a specific volume scattering function of phytoplankton
Optics Express, 2017 Chlorophyll-a specific light volume scattering functions (VSFs) by cultured phytoplankton in visible spectrum range is presented. Chlorophyll-a specific VSFs were determined based on the linear least squares method using a measured VSFs with different chlorophyll-a concentrations.

A new approach to measure the volume scattering function
Optics Express, 2013 We present a novel optical approach to measure the volume scattering function (VSF) by image detection. The instrument design, based upon a combination of two reflectors, uses a unique measurement principle and allows the rapid simultaneous determination of scattering at a wide range of angles. The advantages of the newly developed scattering meter are
