Radiobiology
Rayleigh scattering is the scattering of light or other electromagnetic radiation by particles much smaller than the wavelength of the light. This phenomenon is responsible for the blue color of the sky, as shorter wavelengths of light are scattered more than longer wavelengths when sunlight passes through the atmosphere. The impact of this scattering is significant in understanding how ionization and excitation processes affect the behavior of radiation in different media.
congrats on reading the definition of Rayleigh Scattering. now let's actually learn it.
