Basic Processes (1)<br />

Scattering<br />

“A physical process by which an ensemble of particles<br />

immerged into an electromagnetic radiation field remove<br />

energy from the incident waves to re-irradiate this energy into<br />

other directions”<br />

Absorption<br />

“A physical process by which an ensemble of particles<br />

immerged into an electromagnetic radiation field remove<br />

energy from the incident waves to convert this energy in a<br />

different form”<br />

Extinction<br />

“A physical process by which an ensemble of particles<br />

immerged into an electromagnetic radiation field remove<br />

energy from the incident waves to attenuate the energy of this<br />

incident wave”<br />
