Question

Based on the definition of phase function and Rayleigh scattering, show the phase function for unpolarized radiation is P(O)=3/4(1+code).​

Answer 1

Answer:

The phase function applicable to Rayleigh scattering of unpolarized radiation.

The Rayleigh phase function is expressed as p(θ) = (3/4)(1 + cos2θ), where θ is the scattering angle.
