By invoking ideas about the distribution of the optical paths of partial components of the
scattered field, we obtain an expression for estimating the degree of residual polarization of …

We formulate a quantitative description of backscattered linearly polarized light with an
extended photon diffusion formalism taking explicitly into account the scattering anisotropy …

A study is performed of the multiple small-angle scattering of circularly polarized waves in
random media with large-size transparent inhomogeneities that are less dense than the …

Enhanced backscattering of polarized light by disordered media composed of independently
scattering particles of arbitrary size and shape is studied theoretically. Rigorous relations …

Linearly polarized light backscattered from weakly scattering slabs in the cross-polarized
channel manifests a symmetrical pattern. The origin and the properties of the pattern are …

The coherent backscattering of light from disordered samples was studied with a new
technique, which allowed for a very accurate determination of the enhancement factor in …

It is shown that in the presence of diffusion of electromagnetic waves in random media
containing large discrete scatterers, circular polarization can persist even after the radiation …

The scattering of linearly or circularly polarized light from a semi-infinite randomly
inhomogeneous medium is considered. Using the Monte Carlo method, it is shown that, in …

The effect of preservation of the residual polarization of backscattered light in the case of
multiply scattered disordered media illumination by a linearly polarized plane wave is …

The polarization of a coherent depolarized incident light beam passing through a scattering
medium is investigated at the speckle scale. The polarization of the scattered far field at …
