The in situ optical characterization of smokes composed of soot particles relies on light
extinction, angular static light scattering (SLS), or laser induced incandescence (LII). These …

The impact of morphology on the radiative properties of fractal soot aggregates was
investigated using the discrete dipole approximation (DDA). The optical properties of four …

We employ the numerically exact superposition T-matrix method to perform extensive
computations of scattering and absorption properties of soot aggregates with varying state of …

There is a strong interest in accurately modelling the radiative properties of soot aggregates
(also known as black carbon particles) emitted from combustion systems and fires to gain …

The present study demonstrates the exploitation of the spectral elastic light scattering
technique. Additional information provided by the spectral response of the light scattering …

This paper addresses how well and under what conditions the Rayleigh-Debye-Gans (RDG)
approximation describes scattering and absorption of light by fractal aggregates (FA) …

The modeling of radiative properties of soot particles can be addressed by a number of
methods. Among them, the canonical Rayleigh-Debye-Gans (RDG) theory and the …

The effect of agglomeration on the optical diagnostics and radiative properties of simulated
soot agglomerates is investigated, using results from the Jones solution. It is found that …

The effects of weakly absorbing material coating on soot have attracted considerable
research attention in recent years due to the significant influence of such coating on soot …

Identification of size and structures of soot agglomerates within dynamic flame environment
is possible only via nonintrusive laser diagnostics. Elliptically polarized light scattering is the …
