Abstract
Spectral radiative transfer between particles within dispersed particulate medium is prevalent across various fields, which may be influenced by the microscopic dependent scattering effect (DSE). However, independent scattering assumption (ISA) is only employed in the radiative transfer of most studies, which can lead to significant errors. Consequently, there is an urgent need to establish the more accurate and widely applicable dependent scattering criterion for determining whether the radiative transfer is independent or dependent scattering. However, the most existing criteria are only applicable under the assumption of optically soft particles with weak absorption. This limitation results in the criteria being valid only for certain types of particles, excluding nonmetal particles with highly complex refractive indices and metal particles with strongly absorption. Furthermore, the existing criteria also fail to consider the impact of host medium absorption (HMA) on the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) of metal particles and the DSE between particles. It would represent another significant limitation. To address these above limitations, this paper develops a comprehensive and systematic dependent scattering criterion with considering the plasmon resonances for metal particle and host medium absorption. The multiple sphere T-matrix (MSTM) method, generalized Mie scattering, and Monte Carlo ray tracing (MCRT) method are further employed to calculate and compare the radiative properties across different scales. The extinction cross section is the most suitable contrast parameter in the dependent scattering criterion with the consideration of host medium absorption. Clearance-to-wavelength ratio c/λ is used to characterize dependent scattering criterion. Consequently, the dependent scattering criterion c/λ for nonmetal particles is 6. While the dependent scattering criterion c/λ for metal particles is 5.5.
