RAYLEIGH ATMOSPHERE

Domain	Definition
Aerospace	An idealized atmosphere consisting of only those particles, such as molecules, that are smaller than about one-tenth the wavelength of all radiation incident upon that atmosphere. In such an atmosphere, simple Rayleigh scattering would prevail.This model atmosphere is amenable to reasonably complete theoretical treatment, and hence has often served as a useful starting point in description of the optical properties of actual atmospheres. The polarization of skylight, for example, exhibits almost none of the complexities found in the real atmosphere. (references)
