Abstract

Simulations of scattering and polarization properties for randomly oriented ice crystal particles of various shapes are presented. Analytical procedure of fast averaging over particle orientations is proposed. A pure geometric optics approach is used for visible wavelengths. Within the approach, scattering peaks at forward and backward directions are separated. As a result, the rest Mueller matrix is presented by certain regular functions.
