Las tonalidades rojo-naranja, que observamos en el cielo al alba o en el ocaso, son fenómenos que de forma natural se presentan en la atmósfera y que las culturas ancestrales han podido asociar con mucho éxito a la ocurrencia de otros fenómenos meteorológicos. En la actualidad toda persona que disfruta al alba u ocaso de este fenómeno óptico, puede explicárselo conociendo un poco la composición de la atmósfera y los fenómenos de dispersión de Rayleigh y Efecto o Difusión de Mie Scatter. Sin embargo, dada la creciente actividad productiva del hombre y las emisiones a la atmósfera, es importante reconocer que los gases y partículas emitidas pueden modificar las propiedades ópticas del aire, originando o intensificando los tonos rojizos al amanecer o atardecer, e incluso obstruir casi por completo el paso de la luz solar y solo veríamos colores grisáceos en el cielo. Palabras clave: Contaminación; Dispersión de Rayleigh; Difusión de Mie; espectro visible. Keywords: Pollution; Rayleigh scattering; Mie scattering; Visible spectrum.

A new method to calculate the polarization properties of the atmosphere by combining the Rayleigh scattering and Mie scattering is proposed in this paper. We inversed the values of the required data by experiment and simulated of the atmosphere polarization characteristics under the same conditions. The simulation results show that the proposed method can accurately describe the variation of the atmosphere polarization properties. Besides, the results show such variation: in the same weather conditions, the degree of polarization is gradually increased while scattering angle is gradually increased as 90°; in the same detect conditions, the degree of polarization decreases with the deteriorating weather conditions.

As development of laser technology, the characteristic of laser atmospheric propagation is always hot spot in laser domain. Using theoretical models of laser atmospheric propagation, a simulation system is researched by implementing a scientific method of software development. This simulation system can simulate the radiate property of laser propagation in atmosphere, and demonstrate the course of laser propagation. This theoretical model of atmospheric propagation is based on Lambert-Beer law, combined with other classic theoretical model such as Rayleigh scattering and Mie scattering. Multiple scattering theories are used when simulating the laser propagation in smoke or fog. In calculation, the atmosphere is divided into layer. An appropriate model will be selected for calculation in each layer in order to enhance the stimulation precision. Lastly, the figure of light spot is drawn along with transmission space. Laser atmospheric propagation is demonstrated.

This study uses the correlated-k (c-k) and Mie scattering theory to evaluate absorption and scattering properties of participating media for fire suppression environments. In this approach the irregular spectral distribution of the radiative properties is reordered into cumulative distribution functions on a narrow band basis increasing the speed of property evaluation when compared to line-by-line calculations. The spectral properties are determined from the HITEMP database for carbon dioxide and water vapor, along with Mie and Rayleigh scattering theories for water droplets and soot particles, respectively. Results are presented for radiative heat transfer in a 1D domain for several mixtures and show that the attenuation of the radiation is highly sensitive to the water droplet size, mass loading and soot particle concentration.

The ultrasonic manipulation of cells and bioparticles in a large population is a maturing technology. There is an unmet demand for improved theoretical understanding of the particle–particle interactions at a high concentration. In this study, a semi-analytical method combining the Jacobi–Anger expansion and two-dimensional finite element solution of the scattering problem is proposed to calculate the acoustic radiation forces acting on massive compressible particles. Acoustic interactions on arrangements of up to several tens of particles are investigated. The particle radius ranges from the Rayleigh scattering limit (ka«1) to the Mie scattering region (ka≈1). The results show that the oscillatory spatial distribution of the secondary radiation force is related to the relative size of co-existing particles, not the absolute value (for particles with the same radius). In addition, the acoustic interaction is non-transmissible for a group of identical particles. For a large number of equidistant particles arranged along a line, the critical separation distance for the attraction force decreases as the number of particles increases, but eventually plateaus (for 16 particles). The range of attraction for the formed cluster is stabilized when the number of aggregated particles reaches a certain value.

It is still unclear how water turbidity affects the underwater polarization pattern. Current simulations only consider single Rayleigh scattering of water molecules and ignore multiple Mie scattering of suspended particles. In this study, a method based on a combination of Monte Carlo numerical simulation and Mie scattering theory is used to establish a model of the turbid underwater polarization distribution. Stokes vector and Mueller matrix are used to simulate the underwater polarization patterns within Snell's window. The distribution patterns and dynamic changes of the simulation are consistent with field measurements. The maximum depth that the polarization pattern can be maintained is calculated for different water types. The influence of water turbidity on polarization patterns is discussed. This model provides a tool for researchers to quantitatively analyze the distribution of turbid underwater polarization. In addition, the study is valuable for remote sensing and marine surveillance.

In this paper, we use continuum mechanics to develop an analytic treatment of elastic wave scattering from an embedded cylinder and show that a classic treatise on the subject contains important errors for oblique angles of incidence, which we correct. We also develop missing equations for the scattering cross section at oblique angles and study the sensitivity of the scattering cross section as a function of elastodynamic contrast mechanisms. We find that in the Mie scattering regime for oblique angles of incidence, both elastic and density contrast are important mechanisms by which scattering can be controlled, but that their effects can offset one another, similar to the theory of reflection at flat interfaces. In comparison, we find that in the Rayleigh scattering regime, elastic and density contrast are always complimentary toward increasing scattering cross section, but for sufficiently high density contrast, the scattering cross section for incident compressional and y-transverse modes is nearly independent of elastic contrast. The solution developed captures the scattering physics for all possible incident elastic wave orientations, polarizations, and wavelengths including the transition from Rayleigh to geometric scattering regimes, so long as the continuum approximation holds. The method could, for example, enable calculation of the thermal conductivity tensor from microscopic principles which requires knowledge of the scattering cross section spanning all possible incident elastic wave orientations and polarizations at thermally excited wavelengths.

<p>Los ecosistemas lénticos, tienden a sufrir cambios morfométricos y batimétricos con el paso del tiempo. Esta condición en la bahía interior de Puno, aún no ha sido detallada, por lo que el presente conllevó a su caracterización en los años 2010 y 2012, para compararla con la del año 1975,  además de estimar el volumen de sedimento acumulado en el lecho lacustre desde esa fecha. Para esto se digitalizaron las cartas batimétricas de 1975 y se hicieron levantamientos actuales mediante el uso de ecosonda y aplicación de tecnologías SIG; luego se trazaron isóbatas y construyeron mapas para comparar las variaciones. La estimación de sedimentos acumulados se realizó por diferencias de volumen de agua y cambios de profundidad entre los años mencionados. Los resultados refieren que las condiciones batimétricas han cambiado relativamente, manteniendo un fondo lacustre irregular, con profundidades máximas de 7.76 m para 1975, 7.07 m para 2010 y 7.19 para el 2012. Sus mayores áreas están ocupadas por profundidades menores a 1 m y los mayores volúmenes en las profundidades de 3 a 4 m. Los perfiles evidencian que la cubeta tiene un talud con mayor profundidad hacia la ciudad de Puno. El área para 1975 fue de 15.79 km<sup>2</sup> y para el 2012 de 15.9 km<sup>2</sup>; para el 2012 el volumen fue de 39 millones de m<sup>3</sup>, menor a 1975 que superó los 42 millones. El volumen de sedimentos acumulado desde 1975 hasta el año 2012 fue de 887352.02 m<sup>3</sup>, siendo la tasa de acumulación de 23982.48 m<sup>3</sup>/año y 4.1 mm/año.</p><p> </p><p><strong>Palabras clave: </strong>Isobatas, morfología lagos, perfiles de profundidad, Sistemas de Información Geográfica.</p><p>                                                    </p><p> </p><p align="center"><strong>Morphobathymetric characterization and sediments estimating of the Puno’s inner bay, Titicaca lake, by GIS technology</strong></p><p align="center"><strong>ABSTRACT</strong></p><p>Lentic ecosystems, suffers morphometric and bathymetric changes in the course of time.

Abstract Ultraviolet (UV) structural colors of avian feathers are produced by the spongy medullary keratin of feather barbs, but various physical mechanisms have been hypothesized to produce those colors, including Rayleigh scattering, Mie scattering, and coherent scattering (i.e. constructive interference). We used two-dimensional Fourier analysis of transmission electron micrographs of the medullary keratin of UV-colored feather barbs of the Blue Whistling Thrush (Myiophonus caeruleus) (Turdidae) to test the alternative hypotheses for production of those UV structural hues. The two-dimensional Fourier power spectra of the tissue reveal a ring-like distribution of peak periodicity at intermediate spatial frequencies (∼0.078 nm −1), which documents that Myiophonus medullary keratin is substantially nanostructured and equivalently ordered in all directions. This nanoscale spatial order falsifies a basic assumption of both the Rayleigh scattering and Mie scattering. A predicted reflectance spectrum based on the Fourier power spectra matches hue of the measured reflectance spectra of the feathers (345 nm). These results demonstrate that the Myiophonus medullary keratin is ordered at the appropriately nanoscale to produce the observed UV hues by coherent scattering.
