The latest image making the rounds on the r/opticalillusions subreddit is a fairly innocuous snap of two high-rise buildings.

Raposo from Universidade Federal de Pernambuco, and co-workers have investigated the underlying mechanisms of photonic phase transitions in one-dimensional Rayleigh scattering systems by ...

We don't see the corona during the day because of an effect called Rayleigh scattering. "The light from the sun scatters in the atmosphere, and the atmosphere is so much brighter than the corona, so ...

The Sun appears yellow from Earth due to atmospheric scattering, but in reality, it's a white star emitting all visible ...

Stupid question, but” is a column answering the not-so-stupid questions that, at this point, we’re all too afraid to ask. The ...

So, the moon appears red for the same reason that sunrises and sunsets on earth are red, because of a phenomenon called Rayleigh Scattering, named after the British physicist John William Strutt ...

Why is the sky blue in colour? The colour of the sky is largely due to a phenomenon called "Rayleigh scattering," named after the English scientist Lord Rayleigh, who studied it in the 1870s.

After the sample (molecule) is exposed to an intense beam of monochromatic light in the frequency range of visible, near-infrared or near-ultraviolet region, most of the scattered light is at the same ...

During this phase, the moon turns a red-orange color due to Rayleigh scattering, the same atmospheric effect that makes sunsets appear red. "It's as if all the world's sunrises and sunsets are ...
