Some of the background information for this article and ideas for the visual representation of scatter found in Figure 2 comes from: C.R. Nave, Georgia State University, HyperPhysics. (a) Index address: http://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/hbase/hframe.html. This is an excellent resource, and a fairly popular web site, as hard science sites go. {You will even find a section of the entry on Raleigh scattering [link 2(b)] on the home page of a rock group called Raleigh Scattering (http://rayleighscattering.com). Hey, its my job to know these things.} (b) Scattering page address: http://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/hbase/atmos/blusky.html.

The Mie calculation results displayed in Figures 4 and 5 were done on the Web using a program posted by: (a) Scott Prahl, Biomedical Optics Program, OGI School of Science and Engineering, Oregon Health & Science University. Scott's Home page: http://www.bme.ogi.edu/∼prahl/. Mie calculator: http://omlc.ogi.edu/calc/mie_calc.html. The results were compared with output of a program found on page 482 of: (b) C.F. Bohren and D.R. Huffman, Absorption and Scattering of Light by Small Particles. John Wiley & Sons, New York (1983).
