Experimental verification of the technique for calculating light scattering in turbid media and determination of the single-scattering albedo based on the spectroscopy of elastically reflected electrons

Kurzfassung

The equations of light transfer in a turbid medium and transfer equations for electrons undergoing only elastic collisions in a solid body are shown to be equivalent. The angular distributions of elastically reflected electrons were calculated using the DISORT and MDOM optical codes. The calculation data are compared with the results of experimental measurements for the angular distributions of elastically reflected electrons and with calculations according to the Monte-Carlo method. Optical codes are shown to be highly efficient in calculating the angular distributions of electrons elastically reflected from multilayer media.
