Resumen de The science of the glory.

H. Moysés Nussenzveig

  • The meteorological phenomena called a glory, which is seen as a multi-colored halo that surrounds an observer's shadow on a cloud, is discussed. Researchers have attributed the phenomenon to the refraction of light in water droplets in clouds and the generation of electromagnetic surface waves when light rays interact with water droplets. Although it is a mathematical theory that demonstrates the energy tunneling into water droplets is responsible for the halo. Research on glories has aided climatologists in understanding the role of cloud cover in climate change. INSETS: Why Does It Always Surround Your Shadow?;Light at the End of a Tunnel.
