Quantitative light-scattering angular correlations of conglomerate particles

Abstract

A quantitative analysis of the fluctuations in the scattering associated with micrometer-size glycerol droplets that contain spherical latex inclusions are performed. Scattering intensities at two angles (the near-forward and the near-backward directions) are measured as functions of time. We analyze these signals using two techniques. We find that calculated autocorrelation time constants associated with these signals are not consistent with current models based on interference of light scattering from latex inclusions that exhibit Stokes–Einstein diffusion. The intensity fluctuations at different scattering angles display extended periods of both positive and negative correlations with characteristic time constants of the order of seconds. The time constants associated with the cross correlations provide information on the physical parameters of the inclusions.
