Molecular Scattering of Light by I. L. Fabelinskii Pdf

The development of the laser and the subsequent expansion of research in the field of molecular scattering of light tend to ob scure the vast literature that accumulated on this subject during th'e last fifty years. The appearance of the Russian edition of Dr. Fabelinskii's book, just as this laser-induced explosion in light-scattering research took place, served to put the earlier work in its proper perspective. However, the book lacked any appreci able coverage of the laser work. Fortunately, Dr. Fabelinskii has taken advantage of the time between the appearance of the Russian text and its translation into English to expand greatly the sections devoted to areas in which laser research has made such interesting and vital additions, At the same time, revisions and insertions have been made throughout the text, so that the English translation is virtually a second edition of this useful work. The translator wishes to express his thanks here to Dr. Fa belinskii for making the revisions, corrections, and additions availahle for the English language work. He is also grateful to his graduate student, Mark B. Moffett, who prepared the index and who, during the course of its preparation, made a large number of crit ical comments and corrections that have enhanced the quality of the final product.

The Scattering of Light and Other Electromagnetic Radiation by Milton Kerker Pdf

The Scattering of Light and other Electromagnetic Radiation covers the theory of electromagnetic scattering and its practical applications to light scattering. This book is divided into 10 chapters that particularly present examples of practical applications to light scattering from colloidal and macromolecular systems. The opening chapters survey the physical concept of electromagnetic waves and optics. The subsequent chapters deal with the theory of scattering by spheres and infinitely long cylinders. These topics are followed by discussions on the application of light scattering to the determination of the size distribution of colloidal particles. The last chapters are devoted to the Rayleigh-Debye scattering and the scattering by liquids, as well as the concept of anisotropy. These chapters also describe the effect upon light scattering of partial orientation of anisotropic particles in electrical and magnetic fields and in viscous flow. This book is of value to physical chemists and physical chemistry researchers, teachers, and students.

Dynamic Light Scattering by Bruce J. Berne,Robert Pecora Pdf

Lasers play an increasingly important role in a variety of detection techniques, making inelastic light scattering a tool of growing value in the investigation of dynamic and structural problems in chemistry, biology, and physics. Until the initial publication of this work, however, no monograph treated the principles behind current developments in the field.This volume presents a comprehensive introduction to the principles underlying laser light scattering, focusing on the time dependence of fluctuations in fluid systems; it also serves as an introduction to the theory of time correlation functions, with chapters on projection operator techniques in statistical mechanics. The first half comprises most of the material necessary for an elementary understanding of the applications to the study of macromolecules, or comparable sized particles in fluids, and to the motility of microorganisms. The study of collective (or many particle) effects constitutes the second half, including more sophisticated treatments of macromolecules in solution and most of the applications of light scattering to the study of fluids containing small molecules.With its wide-ranging discussions of the many applications of light scattering, this text will be of interest to research chemists, physicists, biologists, medical and fluid mechanics researchers, engineers, and graduate students in these areas.

Molecular Diffraction of Light (Classic Reprint) by C. V. Raman,Late Nobel Laureate in Physics C V Raman Pdf

Excerpt from Molecular Diffraction of Light In the course of the work, references are made to cases in which the classical wave theory apparently fails to explain the facts relating to molecular scattering in a satisfactory manner, and in the final chapter an attempt is made to consider these cases in terms of the conception introduced by Einstein in 1905 that light is not continuous wave-motion but consists of discrete quanta moving through space.

Absorption and Scattering of Light by Small Particles by Craig F. Bohren,Donald R. Huffman Pdf

Absorption and Scattering of Light by Small Particles Treating absorption and scattering in equal measure, this self-contained, interdisciplinary study examines and illustrates how small particles absorb and scatter light. The authors emphasize that any discussion of the optical behavior of small particles is inseparable from a full understanding of the optical behavior of the parent material-bulk matter. To divorce one concept from the other is to render any study on scattering theory seriously incomplete. Special features and important topics covered in this book include: * Classical theories of optical properties based on idealized models * Measurements for three representative materials: magnesium oxide, aluminum, and water * An extensive discussion of electromagnetic theory * Numerous exact and approximate solutions to various scattering problems * Examples and applications from physics, astrophysics, atmospheric physics, and biophysics * Some 500 references emphasizing work done since Kerker's 1969 work on scattering theory * Computer programs for calculating scattering by spheres, coated spheres, and infinite cylinders

Optical Measurements by Franz Mayinger Pdf

Increasing possibilities of computer-aided data processing have caused a new revival of optical techniques in many areas of mechanical and chemical en gineering. Optical methods have a long tradition in heat and mass transfer and in fluid dynamics. Global experimental information is not sufficient for developing constitution equations to describe complicated phenomena in fluid dynamics or in transfer processes by a computer program . Furthermore, a detailed insight with high local and temporal resolution into the thermo-and fluiddynamic situations is necessary. Sets of equations for computer program in thermo dynamics and fluid dynamics usually consist of two types of formulations: a first one derived from the conservation laws for mass, energy and momentum, and a second one mathematically modelling transport processes like laminar or turbulent diffusion. For reliably predicting the heat transfer, for example, the velocity and temperature field in the boundary layer must be known, or a physically realistic and widely valid correlation describing the turbulence must be avail able. For a better understanding of combustion processes it is necessary to know the local concentration and temperature just ahead of the flame and in the ignition zone.

Soft-Matter Characterization by Redouane Borsali,Robert Pecora Pdf

This 2-volume set includes extensive discussions of scattering techniques (light, neutron and X-ray) and related fluctuation and grating techniques that are at the forefront of this field. Most of the scattering techniques are Fourier space techniques. Recent advances have seen the development of powerful direct imaging methods such as atomic force microscopy and scanning probe microscopy. In addition, techniques that can be used to manipulate soft matter on the nanometer scale are also in rapid development. These include the scanning probe microscopy technique mentioned above as well as optical and magnetic tweezers.

SCATTERING OF LIGHT FROM ATOMS, MOLECULES AND FREE ELECTRONS IN GASES AND PLASMAS by CARL MURRAY PENNEY Pdf

In this dissertation some basic relationships concerning the scattering of light from particles which are very small compared to wavelengths of interest--specifically free electrons, ions, atoms and simple molecules--are examined from a consistent application of quantum perturbation theory to a many body system. Of major concern are particles in gaseous or plasma systems, although many of the results may have broader validity. For the most part attention is confined to nonresonance, linear, single scattering. Higher ordered corrections to the scattering cross section which arise from the variation of the refractive index from unity are neglected and the possible effects of variations in the intensity of incident radiation over distances comparable to wavelengths of interest are not considered in detail. The results obtained under these conditions appear to retain wide limits of applicability are discussed. However, where necessary, all of these conditions can be relaxed to varying degrees through procedures which are mentioned. Among the major results obtained are, first, a consistent and informative derivation of the dependence of light scattering in gases on particle-particle interactions; second, a comparatively simple derivation of the angular distribution of the scattered light; third, detailed relationships between scattering cross sections and oscillator strengths which permit the calculation of Rayleigh and Raman scattering cross sections under appropriate conditions; and fourth, a relationship between familiar quantum expressions for scattering cross sections and refractive indices.

Light-scattering in Physical Chemistry by K. A. Stacey Pdf

In the past decade thevtechnique of light-scattering has seen a rapid develoment and its use extended to many branches of physical chemistry. Although the time is not yet ripe for an exhaustive or authoritative monograph on all its aspects the author felt that an attempt to review the main outlines of the theory, practice and use of this technique would be helpful. The very range of its usefulness has already made it impossible to give an adequate treatment of all its uses and emphasis has therefore been concentrated on macromolecular chemistry where the development has been most spectacular. Since the appearance of new work is so continuous no attempt has been made to be encyclopedic but it is hoped that a general view will help show, particularly to the new-comer to this technique, its potentialities and limitations in physical chemistry.

Light Scattering in Solids by J. L. Birman Pdf

The Second USA-USSR Symposium on Light Scattering in Con densed Matter was held in New York City 21-25 May 1979. The present volume is the proceedings of that conference, and contains all manuscripts received prior to 1 August 1979, representing scientific contributions presented. A few manus cripts were not received, but for completeness the corresponding abstract is printed. No record was kept of the discussion, so that some of the flavor of the meeting is missing. This is par ticularly unfortunate in the case of some topics which were in a stage of rapid development and where the papers presented sti mulated much discussion - such as the sessions on spatial dis persion and resonance inelastic (Brillouin or Raman) scattering in crystals, enhanced Raman scattering from molecules on metal surfaces, and the onset of turbulence in fluids. The background and history of the US-USSR Seminar-Symposia on light scattering was given in the preface to the proceedings of the First Symposium held in Moscow May 1975, published as "Theory of Light Scattering in Condensed Matter" ed. B. Bendow, J. L. Birman, V. M. Agranovich (Plenum Press, N. Y. 1976). Strong scientific interest on both sides in continuing this series resulted in a plan for the second symposium to be held in New York in 1977. For a variety of reasons it was necessary to cancel the planned 1977 event, almost at the last minute.
