Computation of a single-scattering matrix for nonspherical particles randomly or horizontally oriented in space.
The computation of the scattering properties of cirrus cloud ice crystals by the ray-tracing approach is described. A light beam is represented by its Stokes quadrivector I, which describes intensity as well as polarization, and the scattering properties of particles (molecules, droplets, or ice crystals) are introduced by means of a 4 x 4 transformation matrix M known as the Mueller matrix, or...
متن کاملPolymer depletion profiles around nonspherical colloidal particles.
We study the effect of chain self-avoidance on the polymer density profiles that are induced by a single colloidal particle of nonspherical shape such as an ellipsoid, a dumbbell, or a lens in a solution of nonadsorbing polymers. For colloid sizes sigma much smaller than the size R(x) of the polymers, we observe a pronounced difference between ideal and self-avoiding chains. In the case of idea...
متن کاملUniform Nonspherical Colloidal Particles with Tunable Shapes
Colloidal particles are ubiquitous for a broad spectrum of applications. Many current applications require nonspherical particles. They have been used for modifying optical properties and as a building block for self-assembled biomaterials. They are also beneficial for controlling suspension rheology and for engineering colloidal composites. In general, synthesizing uniform nonspherical particl...
متن کاملLight scattering by slightly nonspherical particles on surfaces.
We investigate the shape dependence of the scattering by dielectric and metallic particles on surfaces by considering particles whose free-space scattering properties are nearly identical. The scattering by metallic particles is strongly dependent on the shape of the particle in the region near where the particle touches the surface. The scattering by dielectric particles displays a weaker, but...
متن کاملHypostatic jammed packings of frictionless nonspherical particles.
We perform computational studies of static packings of a variety of nonspherical particles including circulo-lines, circulo-polygons, ellipses, asymmetric dimers, dumbbells, and others to determine which shapes form packings with fewer contacts than degrees of freedom (hypostatic packings) and which have equal numbers of contacts and degrees of freedom (isostatic packings), and to understand wh...
