Notes:
A theory is developed by use of the correlation function approach for calculating both the Hv and Vv intensity of scattered light for a concentrated assembly of spherulities. The scattering becomes a function of the radial and tangential polarizabilities of the spherulite αr and αt, the polarizability αm of the medium, surrounding the spherulites, and the volume fraction φs of spherulites. The “effective polarizability of the surroundings” αs, which appeared in previous theories, becomes function of these variables. The theory can explain, for example, why the Vv scattered intensity passes through a maximum during the course of crystallization.
