Abstract

A forward-scatter meter measures a small portion of light scattered out of a light beam into a relatively narrow band of scattering angles. The forward-scatter meter measurement is then used to estimate the extinction coefficient; the scattered signal is assumed to be proportional to the extinction coefficient.
