چکیده

A three-parameter model based on the Whittle-Matérn correlation family is used to describe continuous random refractive-index fluctuations. The differential scattering cross section is derived from the index correlation function using nonscalar scattering formulas within the Born approximation. Parameters such as scattering coefficient, anisotropy factor, and spectral dependence are derived from the differential scattering cross section for this general class of functions.

Structural length-scale sensitivities of reflectance measurements in continuous random media under the Born approximation.

Which range of structures contributes to light scattering in a continuous random media, such as biological tissue? In this Letter, we present a model to study the structural length-scale sensitivity of scattering in continuous random media under the Born approximation. The scattering coefficient μs, backscattering coefficient μb, anisotropy factor g, and reduced scattering coefficient μs* as we...

Accuracy of the Born approximation in calculating the scattering coefficient of biological continuous random media.

A rigorous error analysis is presented for the scattering coefficient of biological random continuous media in the Born (or single-scattering) approximation. The analysis is done in two dimensions (2-D) for simplicity of numerical computation. Scattering coefficients of various tissue-like random media are numerically calculated via statistical finite-difference-time-domain analysis. The result...

Scattering Attenuation of 2D Elastic Waves: Theory and Numerical Modeling Using a Wavelet-Based Method

The passage of seismic waves through highly heterogeneous media leads to significant scattering of seismic energy and an apparent attenuation of seismic signals emerging from the heterogeneous zone. The size of this scattering attenuation depends on the correlation properties of the medium, the rates of Pand S-wave velocities, and frequency content of the incident waves. An estimate of the effe...

Microwave Scattering Properties of Dry Snow Using the Bi-continous Random Media

In this paper, we introduce bi-continuous random media morphology to describe the snow structure. Both analytical method and numerical method are used to study the scattering properties of bi-continuous media with discrete permittivities in the frequency of 18.7GHz. The bi-continuous medium is based on a continuous representation of interfaces between inhomogeneities within the medium [1]. The ...

Light scattering by cubical particle in the WKB approximation

In this work, we determined the analytical expressions of the form factor of a cubical particle in the WKB approximation. We adapted some variables (size parameter, refractive index, the scattering angle) and found the form factor in the approximation of Rayleigh-Gans-Debye (RGD), Anomalous Diffraction (AD), and determined the efficiency factor of the extinction. Finally, to illustrate our form...
