Abstract

The optical properties of ice crystals in noctilucent clouds (NLCs) are studied using the Maxwell theory. In particular, the phase matrix of particles is calculated usng the Discrete Dipole Approximation (DDA). The DDA is a very efficient technique for particles having sizes smaller or on the order of the wavelength. This is the case for NLCs particles both in visible and UV.
