hajontamittari
A hajontamittari, which translates from Finnish as "dispersion meter" or "scattering meter," is an instrument used to measure the scattering properties of light or other electromagnetic radiation. It quantifies how much radiation is deflected from its original path when it interacts with a medium or a surface. This scattering can be due to various phenomena, such as the presence of particles, irregularities in a material's structure, or atmospheric conditions.
The principle of operation for a hajontamittari typically involves directing a beam of radiation at a sample
In atmospheric science, hajontamittarit are employed to study aerosols and their impact on visibility and climate.
