Simulation of multiple scattering in a medium with an anisotropic scattering pattern

Multiple backscattering from layers with various thicknesses, including the case of half-space, is numerically simulated and a comparative analysis is performed for systems with the anisotropy of scattering described by the Henyey–Greenstein and Rayleigh–Gans phase functions. It is shown that the in...

Summary:Multiple backscattering from layers with various thicknesses, including the case of half-space, is numerically simulated and a comparative analysis is performed for systems with the anisotropy of scattering described by the Henyey–Greenstein and Rayleigh–Gans phase functions. It is shown that the intensity of backscattering depends on the form of the phase function; the difference between the intensities obtained within the two models increases with anisotropy.
