Polarization by Scattering Simulation

Polarization by Scattering Simulation

This simulation demonstrates how sunlight becomes polarized when scattered by atmospheric molecules. The polarizer screen (top right) shows the light that would pass through a polarizing filter at the current angle.

Polarization: 100% perpendicular to scattering plane
Transmitted Intensity: 100%
