Abstract

The light beam propagation in the system "transparent sphere -- mirrored surface" is described in a ray approximation. The indicatrixes of back scattering are determined using the method of the numerical simulation. The coefficients of retroreflection in candelas per lux per square meter are calculated. Usage of the diffuse scatterer is offered as the standard sample.
