gas_scattering_agenda

property Workspace.gas_scattering_agenda

Calculation of the gas scattering extinction and phase matrix.

This agenda calculates the gas scattering cross section and the normalized phase matrix for a specific incoming ( gas_scattering_los_in ) and outgoing (gas_scattering_los_out) direction. The scattering cross section is calculated along a propagtion path given by the propagation path variables rtp_pressure, rtp_temperature, and rtp_vmr.If gas_scattering_los_in and gas_scattering_los_out are empty vectors, then gas_scattering_mat is set empty. If gas_scattering_los_in and gas_scattering_los_out are not empty, then the phase matrix is calculated for the define incoming and outgoing direction.
