Abstract

The possibility of analysing data on light scattering by polydisperse aerosols using the Rayleigh–Gans approximation is considered. We show that this approximation may be used to determine the mean radius of a polydispersion from measurements of light scattered in the near‐forward direction by correcting for the systematic errors involved. However, neither the absolute normalization of the phase function nor the multispectral extinction data may be usefully analysed by this method to obtain the mass loading.

We calculate the single particle scattering properties of cylindrical particles with the iterative version of the Coupled Dipole Method (CDM), and using these results we discuss the validity regime of the Rayleigh-Gans-Debye (RGD) theory. The CDM includes, contrary to RGD scattering, the higher orde

The quantum-mechanical impulse approximation is applied to vibrational excitation of a diatomic molecute by collinear collision with a third atom. Our calculations are compared with other theoretical results (exact quantummechanical, semi-classical, classical) and with experimental data from O:-He c
