Abstract

Friedman, Morris D., West Newton, Mass. ON THE THEORY OF NONSTATIONARY LIGHT SCATTERING, by I. A. Klimishin. May 61, 10p. (Translation no. K-249, of Ukr. Fiz. Zh. 5:620-627, 1960) (Contract AF 19(604) 5969) (AFCRL-353)Unclassified report DESCRIPTORS: *Light, Scattering, Theory, Shock waves, Analysis, Gas flow, Upper atmosphere, Probability, Velocity, Differential equations, Integral equations, Functions, Quantum mechanics, Integral transforms, Thermal radiation. A strong shockwave- front which moves in the atmosphere of the earth (or even in a starry envelope or in interstellar space) radiates light; the radiant energy is here absorbed by the gas ahead of the wavefront to some degree. Radiant energy from a strong shockwave front considerably affects the magnitude of the temperature jump at the wavefront and determines its configuration. The interaction of strong shockwaves with radiation is discussed. Before applying the modern theory of light scattering to gasdynamics problems, it is necessary to develop a theory of nonstationary light scattering in a medium with moving boundaries.
