ptscext.m
simulates the extinction coefficient due to a collection of randomly
distributed point scatterers. The point scatterers are divided into clusters.
Input Parameters
- nc: number of clusters
- npc: number of point
scatterers per cluster
- wavel: incident
wavelenght (meter)
- L: length of cubic box
(of wavelengths)
- lc: length of cluster
(of wavelengths)
- fp: real part of
scattering amplitude
- tai: polar incidence
angle (degree)
- phi: azimuthal incidence
angle (degree)
- nrlz: number of
realizations
- seed: seed for random
numbers
Example
The figures below are
generated with the following parameters:
(a) L=50, wavel=0.02, tai=45, fp=0.008905, phi=0,
seed=123456, nc=1, npc=250, lc=L=50
(b) L=50, wavel=0.02, tai=45, fp=0.008905, phi=0,
seed=123456, nc=25, npc=10, lc=1 and 0.2
