Abstract:
It is suggested that the measurement of the angular distribution
of light transmitted through a thick slab of diffusively scattering material
may provide information about the nature of the local scattering
events. Monte Carlo simulations indicate that the angular distribution depends
on eie* where and e* are the true and transport mean free
paths, respectively, and this dependence is confirmed analytically using
a modified diftusion model. Preliminary experimental results for liquid
and solid foams are explicable in terms of strong forward scattering in
the individual scattering events.
