...), as the radiative properties are formulated as the uncorrelated sum of the dependent scattering properties of the constituent fiber strands. The extinction coefficient, scattering coefficient, and scattering phase function are derived for fiber composites of arbitrary internal architecture. The application...

... experimentally by comparing light scattering measurements on a one-dimensional slab of powder with multiple-scattering simulations using Monte Carlo and discrete ordinate methods. The equivalent isotropic-scattering extinction coefficient for close-packed molybdenum trioxide (MoO 3 ) nanopowder was found...

.... This method is applied to materials made of opaque or semitransparent randomly oriented long circular cylinders representing the fibers. The results permit us to investigate the limit of validity of independent scattering hypothesis and to analyze the evolution of the extinction coefficient, scattering albedo...
