چکیده

Method for aureole estimation refinement through comparisons between observed aureole and estimated aureole based on Monte Carlo Ray Tracing: MCRT is proposed. Through some experiments, it is found that the proposed method does work for refinement of aureole estimation. The experimental results also show the proposed method is validated through comparison with empirical aureole estimation equation which is proposed by Shebrooke University research group. Keywords—Monte Carlo method; Ray tracing method; Aureole; aerosol; optical depth; solar diffuse; solar direct

0 The Multiply Scattering Effect on the Energy Measure - ment of UHE Cosmic Rays using Atmospheric Fluores - cence Technique

Point sources in the atmosphere are surrounded by aureole because of atmospheric scattering. The properties of the time-dependent aureole radiance are calculated by use of a Monte Carlo approach and an iterative method. Since the aureole is particularly important in the ultraviolet, which is the region the Ultra-High-Energy (UHE) cosmic ray experiment using the air fluorescence technique like F...

Method for Estimation of Aerosol Parameters Based on Ground Based Atmospheric Polarization Irradiance Measurements

Method for aerosol refractive index estimation with ground based polarization measurement data is proposed. The proposed method uses a dependency of refractive index on p and s polarized down welling solar diffuse irradiance. It is much easy to measure p and s polarized irradiance on the ground with a portable measuring instrument rather than solar direct, diffuse and aureole measurements. Thro...

Aerosol features retrieved from solar aureole data: a simulation study concerning a turbid atmosphere.

The characteristics of the solar aureole were evaluated for several cases of a turbid atmosphere in the 3° ≤θ≤30° interval of scattering angles; for each case, the features of the aerosol were retrieved from the simulated aureole data. Computations were carried out with a recently set up radiative transfer code that uses the approximated delta-M method, corrected further for the 1st and 2nd sca...

Solar aureoles caused by dust, smoke, and haze.

The forward scattering of sunlight by atmospheric aerosols causes a bright glow to appear around the Sun. This phenomenon, the simplest manifestation of the solar corona, is called the solar aureole. Simple methods can be used to photograph the solar aureole with conventional and digital cameras. Aureole images permit both a visually qualitative and an analytically quantitative comparison of au...
