Abstract:
Small-angle scattering of laser radiation in purified (twice-distilled) water is studied experimentally. The scattering indicatrix shows that such water contains scattering micron impurities. The parameters of the size distribution of these impurities are estimated from the experimental data. The results obtained in the paper confirm the earlier proposed hypothesis about the presence of stable microbubbles of gas, bubstons, dissolved in pure liquids.
