Backscattering Effects in Media with Strongly Elongated Scattering Indicatrices

Resumo

We consider the weak localization and the backscattering halo in media with strongly elongated scattering indicatrices. The earlier theory is generalized to the case of a nonuniform backscattering cross section in the rear hemisphere. Asymptotic formulas for the backscattering intensities are obtained in the low-angle diffusion approximation.
