The efficiency of interaction of radiation with a particle and hence its optical properties depend on the particle chemical composition, size, shape, structure, etc. ... Particle size expressed in units of the wavelength of incident radiation, together with chemical composition, most strongly affects the optical properties of a scatterer. ... There are many methods to solve the light-scattering problem for a homogeneous spheroid (our survey of the light-scattering methods see here ). ...

New lUE observations of the reflection nebula IC 435 are presented, and the scattering properties of the nebular dust grains are derived. ... The UV observations plus optical data from the literature determine the most likely star-nebula geometry, the nebular dust density distribution, and the values of the albedo and the phase function asymmetry for the dust grains. ...

... Physical Properties of Crystals . ... The course is an introduction into crystal physics and consists of two introductory parts devoted to the basics of crystallography and tensor analysis and six main chapters in which the physical phenomena in anisotropic medium are described by the example of the elastic, electrical and magnetic crystal properties. The effect of symmetry is also discussed. ... Effect of symmetry on crystal properties. ... Effect of symmetry on crystal optical properties. ...

... The sky distribution of the BCGs from the HSS sample is shown in Fig. 6 together with BCGs from the SBS and Case surveys (Izotov et al. [ 1993b ]; Pustilnik et al. ... First, we compare the apparent magnitude distributions of the three samples. ... The similar behaviour of the faint end of the apparent magnitude distributions infers that the Northern BCG sample may have a similar completeness down to this limiting magnitude. ...
