Coherent and incoherent multiple scattering

Coherent and incoherent multiple scattering of light in seawater.

Coherent and incoherent scattering by oceanic bubbles

A substantial amount of research on acoustic scattering by underwater bubbles is based on the theory of incoherent scattering. More recent work, devoted to much denser bubble assemblies, has instead used effective-media formulations that presuppose coherent effects. Here the mutual relationship between the two approaches i elucidated. It is shown that, underlying the incoherent results, is a WK...

Coherent and Incoherent Scattering cross sections

Coherent and incoherent scattering cross section measurements have been carried out using a HPGe detector on elements in the range of Z = 13 50 using Am gamma rays. The cross sections have been derived by comparing the net count rate obtained from the Compton peak of aluminium with the corresponding peak of the target. The measured cross sections for the coherent and incoherent processes are co...

Separation of coherent and incoherent scattering contributions in ellipsometric light scattering experiments on latex mixtures.

Mixtures of poly(styrene) latices were used to vary the sample polydispersity for an investigation of polydispersity effects on ellipsometric light scattering (ELS) data. A procedure for high-accuracy ELS measurements is presented and the experimental distinction of coherent and incoherent scattering contributions is demonstrated. The ellipsometric parameters tan (phiQ) and delta are solely det...

Coherent multiple scattering in disordered media

These notes contain a rapid overview of the methods and results obtained in the field of propagation of waves in disordered media. The case of Schrödinger and Helmholtz equations are considered that describe respectively electrons in metals and scalar electromagnetic waves. The assumptions on the nature of disorder are discussed and perturbation methods in the weak disorder limit are presented....
