Angularly resolved elastic scattering from airborne particles - Potential for characterizing, classifying, and identifying individual aerosol particles
Kaye, Paul H.; Aptowicz, Kevin; Chang, Richard K.; Foot, Virginia; Videen, Gorden (Springer Nature, 2007)Analysing the light scattering properties of individual airborne particles has become a powerful tool by which they may be characterized, classified, and in some cases, identified. The approach offers a non-invasive, ... -
Application of neural networks to the inverse light scattering problem for spheres
Ulanowski, Zbigniew; Wang, Z.; Kaye, Paul H.; Ludlow, Ian (1998)A new approach suitable for solving inverse problems in multi-angle light scattering is presented. The method takes advantage of multidimensional function approximation capability of radial basis function (RBF) neural ... -
Application of RTDF to particles with curved surfaces
Hesse, E.; McCall, D.; Ulanowski, Z.; Stopford, C.; Kaye, Paul H. (2009)The applicability of the ray tracing with diffraction on facets model is extended to particles with curved surfaces. This allows tests against T-matrix calculations for larger size parameters and modelling of light scattering ... -
Application of RTDF to particles with curved surfaces
Hesse, E.; McCall, D.; Ulanowski, Z.; Stopford, C.; Kaye, Paul H. (University of Hertfordshire, 2008)The applicability of RTDF is extended to particles with curved surfaces. This allows tests against T-matrix calculations for larger size parameter and modeling of light scattering by more realistic particle shapes, such ... -
Atmospheric dust charging, vertical profiles, and optical properties measured in the Arabian Peninsula during the DREAME campaign
Ulanowski, Joseph; Sabbah, Ismail; Harrison, R.G.; Nicoll, K.A.; Hirst, Edwin; Kaye, Paul H.; Al-Abbadi, Naif; Rogers, George (2010)Polarimetric observations of atmospheric Saharan dust over the Canary Islands have provided strong evidence for the presence of vertically aligned particles. The alignment was thought to be due to the electric field present ... -
