class sasktran2.optical.Mie(psize_distribution: ParticleSizeDistribution, refractive_index: RefractiveIndex)[source]#

Bases: OpticalProperty

Mie scattering optical property where the Mie calculations are done on the fly.

Note, this is much slower than using a precomputed Mie table, and in most cases it is recommended to use the MieDatabase class instead.

Parameters:

  • psize_distribution (ParticleSizeDistribution) – Particle size distribution to use for the Mie calculations

  • refractive_index (RefractiveIndex) – Refraction index to use for the Mie calculations

__init__(psize_distribution: ParticleSizeDistribution, refractive_index: RefractiveIndex)[source]#
