Determination of aerosol parameters from light-scattering data using an inverse Monte Carlo technique

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

An inverse, Monte Carlo (IMC) technique is developed to solve the electromagnetic inverse-scattering problem from generally complex distributions of dielectric particles. One can verify the technique using simulated scattering data from aerosols composed of spherical dielectrics. The IMC method is found to give accurate inversion results even when the data have a signal-to-noise ratio to as low as 3:1.
