Abstract
We study the orientational average of the scattering efficiencies of scatterers composed by an eccentrically located spherical TiO 2 pigment within an air bubble embedded in resin. This study is carried out within a general T-matrix formalism and takes into account the contributions of the asymmetry parameter to the photon transport mean-free path. We perform a detailed comparison of the scattering efficiency of this system with the one corresponding to the same pigment particle embedded directly in resin. We showed that placing a TiO 2 pigment eccentrically into an air bubble embedded in resin could not increase the scattering efficiency of the pigment in comparison to a system consisting of the same fractional volume of pigment particles and the same fractional volume of air bubbles acting independently within the same resin.
