Polarimetric Sensitivity of Light-Absorbing Carbonaceous Aerosols Over Ocean: A Theoretical Assessment
Chenchong Zhang, William R. Heinson, Michael J. Garay +2
Visible-light-absorbing carbonaceous aerosols within the boundary layer affect the radiance and polarization states of the radiation at the top of the atmosphere. Remote sensing fr…
Universal Kinetics of the Sol-to-Gel Transition
Pai Liu, William R. Heinson, Christopher M. Sorensen +1
A comprehensive theory encompassing the kinetics of sol-to-gel transition is yet to be formulated due to break-down of the mean-field Smoluchowski Equation. Using high temporal-res…
Scaling laws for Light Absorption by Atmospheric Black Carbon Aerosol
Rajan K. Chakrabarty, William R. Heinson
Black carbon (BC) aerosol, the strongest absorber of visible solar radiation in the atmosphere, contributes to a large uncertainty in direct radiative forcing estimates. A primary…
Retrieving the Aerosol Complex Refractive Index using PyMieScatt: A Mie Computational Package with Visualization Capabilities
Benjamin J. Sumlin, William R. Heinson, Rajan K. Chakrabarty
The complex refractive index m=n+ik of a particle is an intrinsic property which cannot be directly measured, it must be inferred from its extrinsic properties such as the scatteri…
