1 Raman Scattering Theory David W. Hahn Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering University of Florida ([email protected]) Introduction The scattering of light may be thought of as the redirection of light that takes place when an electromagnetic (EM) wave (i.e. an incident light ray) encounters an obstacle or nonhomogeneity, in our case the scattering material (solid, liquid or gas). As...

Orthogonal and forward light-scattering properties of lymphocytes were measured from patients with different lymphocytic diseases in order to determine the potential value of light scattering as a screening device. Monitoring of orthogonal light scattering of lymphocytes of a B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia patient during splenic irradiation (SI) revealed the selective decrease of malignant...

Both transmittance changes in a weak beam of green light (light scattering) and the slow decay of chlorophyll a fluorescence were used as indicators of the energy state of leaves of a Crassulacean acid metabolism plant, Kalanchoë pinnata, at frequent intervals during 12-hour light/12-hour dark cycles. To induce light scattering and fluorescence changes, leaves were exposed to red light for 6 mi...
