The atmosphere ( by virtue of the Raleigh and Mie scattering mechanisms ) takes the blue light out of sunlight and scatters it in all directions equally.
12.
:I agree that this is most likely either Raleigh scattering or Mie scattering-primarily because you mention a the distance disparity between the two trees.
13.
The prize citation reads : " For distinguished and valuable contributions to the theory of Mie scattering and to the theories of the rainbow and the glory ."
14.
Smoke is an aerosol ( or mist ) of solid particles and liquid droplets that are close to the ideal range of sizes for Mie scattering of visible light.
15.
Celestial objects will look perfectly crisp and clear from Jupiter's atmosphere, not blurry like the view through dusty air because there's no Mie scattering.
16.
The strongest backscatter comes from hail and large graupel ( solid ice ) due to their sizes, but non-Rayleigh ( Mie scattering ) effects can confuse interpretation.
17.
The other attributes of infrared photographs include very dark skies and penetration of atmospheric haze, caused by reduced Rayleigh scattering and Mie scattering, respectively, compared to visible light.
18.
The product appears translucent with a blue tinge as a consequence of Rayleigh scattering; when placed in front of a light source, it becomes yellowish due to Mie scattering.
19.
Where Q _ { \ rm PR } is the Mie scattering coefficient, and \ rho is the density and s is the size ( the radius ) of the dust grain.
20.
For this reason, the pipe needs to have a length of a meter or more and the water must be purified by microfiltration to remove any particles that could produce Mie scattering.
