This project is aimed to continue TP 9 in measuring infrared extinction by particles and particle agglomerates in vibrational bands with the experimental setup developed in the preceding project phase. In addition, we intend to continue part of the work previously done in TP 10 by measuring the particle's scattering coefficients, but now in the infrared spectral range. Both types of measurements will be done on the same ensembles of free-flying particles in a low-pressure gas environment.
The combination of these measurements will allow us to study in a comprehensive way the effect of particle shape and agglomeration on the optical properties of solid particles.
