Abstract

Calculations have been carried out of single light scattering by Rayleigh type spheroidal dust particles. It can be shown that elliptical polarized radiation with e = v/p ≈ 0.15 can be produced from unpolarized incident radiation, in the case of dirty quartz particles with a refractive index m = 1.54 ± 0.4i and a geometrical axial ratio c: a ≈ 1:2.
