Multiple Scattering of Light by Particles : Radiative Transfer and Coherent Backscattering, Paperback / softback Book

Multiple Scattering of Light by Particles : Radiative Transfer and Coherent Backscattering Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

This volume provides a thorough treatment of multiple scattering of light and other electromagnetic radiation in media composed of randomly and sparsely positioned particles.

It systematically and consistently presents radiative transfer theory as a branch of classical macroscopic electromagnetics.

After tracing the fundamental link between radiative transfer theory and the effect of coherent backscattering, the authors explain them in the context of a comprehensive hierarchy of electromagnetic scattering problems.

Dedicated sections present a thorough discussion of the physical meaning and range of applicability of the radiative transfer equation and compare the self-consistent microphysical and the traditional phenomenological approaches to radiative transfer.

This self-contained book will be valuable for science professionals, engineers, and graduate students working across a wide range of disciplines including optics, electromagnetics, remote sensing, atmospheric radiation, astrophysics, and biomedicine.
