Not exact matches

«We needed a very smooth surface that interacts as little as possible with a variety of liquids, and we also needed ingredients that mix together very well, because too much phase separation between ingredients will scatter light.»

Total levels of nighttime lighting are straightforward to calculate from satellite images — scientists have done this for decades — but determining how much «skyglow» all that light causes as it scatters through Earth's atmosphere is a thornier task.

It was difficult to capture an image through thicker samples, such as a human arm, because too much light was scattered back from the tissue.

Shorter wavelengths, such as blue light, are scattered much more than the longer ones.

In this sense, these particles scatter light much the same as do oxygen and nitrogen molecules.

Not being absorbed by real world water, visible is not only not capable because of its tiny scale of moving the whole molecule of water into vibration which is what it takes to heat water, but it isn't even able to be absorbed by the electrons of the water molecules as the electrons of the molecules of air absorb it, so water doesn't reflect / scatter visible light on the electrons of molecule level as does air, but gives up and passes it along, and so, visible is transmitted through, also, unchanged, but much delayed.

Shorter wavelengths though more energetic does not mean that they are therefore more powerful in penetrating matter, they are much weaker than the longer waves depending on the make up of the matter as more likely to get reflected and scattered because of their tiny size, and here, my point, is that the Solar energy balance graphic is wrong, because it has reversed the properties by giving Light energies the ability to penetrate and heat matter which is the actual, real, property of Thermal IR.
