Absorption and scattering of light by small particles Craig F. Bohren, Donald R. Huffman

The dust particles, and thus smaller than the wavelength of visible light. Aerosols of terpenes from the vegetation react with ozone in the atmosphere to form small particles about 200 nm across, and these particles scatter the blue light. Usually, if a laser beam hits a small particle in its path, the light is scattered backwards, which in turn pushes the particle forward. When light hits a gas molecule, some of it may get absorbed, as electrons absorb the energy and transition from lower energy levels to higher ones. That's because injecting sulfate ..

The quantum mechanical treatment of light scattering predicts the same general results but more explicitly involves the vibrational energy levels and wave functions of the molecule. Depending on the size of the particle, they might scatter blue light differently than red light." It is that scattering effect that would But it could be a boon to plants, which showed a small but measurable uptick in growth in the months after Mount Pinatubo erupted in 1991. But they don't scatter light equally. And Huffman, D.R., "Absorption and Scattering of Light by Small Particles", Wiley, New York, 1983. The scattering of light on small particles are normally divided between two explanations: Rayleigh Scattering, named after Lord Rayleigh and Mie Scattering, named after Gustav Mie. There are two different circular polarization Since I do not have such an article available currently on the website [trying to explain the chiral condensate to non-experts is no small matter] I would prefer we not engage in this discussion right now. An atmosphere filled with dust will appear reddish because the scattering and absorption of the shorter wavelengths would only leave the red in the direct and scattered beams. Their abundance, type and size are extremely variable, and their effect on light is also variable. For example, applying the Rayleigh law to the wavelengths of red and blue light, shows that small particles will scatter blue light roughly 10 times more efficiently than red light. Rayleigh scattering refers to the scattering of light off of the molecules of the air, and can Electromagnetic Radiation," Chapters 3 and 4, Academic Press, New York, 1969.

Light rays may also be absorbed by the atoms, molecules, and dusts Some mountainous regions are famous for their blue haze.
