Enhanced Backscattering

Multi-field of view multiple-scattering polarization lidar (MFMSPL) has been developed to measure enhanced backscattering and depolarization ratio from optically thick clouds. Collocated cloud radar observations and Monte Carlo simulations supported the system performance such as cloud detectability and values of depolarization ratio. The system is used to evaluate/improve algorithms for space-borne lidar such as CALIOP on CALIPSO and ATLID on EarthCARE.

Analytical Approaches

We present some results on circumstellar envelopes using a Monte Carlo code we are developing. In contrast to analytical approaches, the effects of multiple scattering and the finite sizes of sources and envelope have been incorporated in the models. As an illustration, we fit the light-curve of V444 Cyg as well as the modulation of the linear polarization throughout its orbit.
