Abstract

Light absorption and scattering by weakly absorbing layers of close-packed fine-grained silver halide particles was studied. Absorption characteristics of an elementary volume and a photolayer were found to have a nonlinear and nonmonotonic dependence on the concentration. Qualitative specific features of this dependence in the range of medium values of volume concentrations from 0.4 to 0.8 were expressed by an empirical formula. The average cosine of the depth brightness diagram and the probability of photon survival Λ in a concentrated photolayer were calculated. The analysis of changes in Λ in a close-packed medium in a more general case, irrespective of the size and the degree of absorption of particles, was carried out. A conclusion was made concerning the character of changes in the scattering indicatrix of a photolayer caused by an increase of its density.
