What is another word for tyndall?
Pronunciation: [tˈɪndɔːl] (IPA) 
Tyndall refers to the phenomenon of scattering of light by particles in a medium that is transparent or translucent. Synonyms for this term include Mie scattering, non-selective scattering, or Rayleigh scattering depending on the size of particles and nature of the medium. Mie scattering occurs for larger particles with diameters comparable to the wavelength of the scattered light, while Rayleigh scattering occurs for smaller particles. Non-selective scattering implies that the scattered light has no particular color preference. The Tyndall effect can be observed in the blue color of the sky, haze, or fog. Understanding the synonyms for Tyndall helps to describe physical phenomena in various scientific and engineering applications.
