Suppression of elastic scattering resonances in microdroplets seeded with nm-sized latex particles

摘要

Abstract: ce structure in elastic scattering (atapproximately 90 deg from the direction of forwardscattering) has been measured for evaporatingmicron-sized glycerol droplets suspended in anelectrodynamic trap. Seeding the droplets withpolystyrene latex particles having diameter 30 nm $LSEQd $LSEQ 105 nm broadens and attenuates the highest Q (Q$APEQ 10$+4$/-10$+5$/) resonances. Further, regardlessof whether resonance conditions are satisfied, theaddition of latex particles causes fluctuations of theelastic scattering with amplitude up to $APEQ 10% ofthe total signal.!11
