Abstract

In this paper we show that in the problem of light scattering by one randomly oriented irregularly shaped particle, the effect of negative polarization arises. In addition, we indicate a physical mechanism that explains this effect, namely, negative polarization appears as a result of the contribution to the scattered radiation from conjugated quasi-planar light trajectories inside a particle that interfere with each other.
