The finely stratified sphere model was used to calculate scattered electromagnetic fields from radially inhomogeneous spherical particles illuminated by electromagnetic plane waves. The calculation results show that radial gradients of the real part of the refractive indices change the ray paths into curved lines inside large spherical particles, resulting in fluctuations of rainbow positions for droplets during heat transfer processes. The light intensity in the forward scattering region is found to be useful to infer information about the profile of the imaginary part of the refractive index.

Abstract
The finely stratified sphere model was used to calculate scattered electromagnetic fields from radially inhomogeneous spherical particles illuminated by electromagnetic plane waves. The calculation results show that radial gradients of the real part of the refractive indices change the ray paths into curved lines inside large spherical particles, resulting in fluctuations of rainbow positions for droplets during heat transfer processes. The light intensity in the forward scattering region is found to be useful to infer information about the profile of the imaginary part of the refractive index.File in questo prodotto:
