Abstract
We present a new method for in-situ determination of the geometric opt ics albedo for a large single particle of arbitrary shape. Contrary to other methods, we can determine the albedo by utilizing basic geometr ic assumptions, and need no prior information of the particle surface structure, chemical composition, or optical properties. We show prelim inary results for spherically shaped carbon particles with rough surfa ce structure.
