Y. Takano et Kn. Liou, TRANSFER OF POLARIZED INFRARED RADIATION IN OPTICALLY ANISOTROPIC MEDIA - APPLICATION TO HORIZONTALLY ORIENTED ICE CRYSTALS - REPLY, Journal of the Optical Society of America. A, Optics, image science,and vision., 11(4), 1994, pp. 1378-1378
The approximation using the scalar extinction coefficient is justified
in the computation of the Stokes parameters. The inapplicability of H
ovenier's symmetry relation B in the case of horizontally oriented ice
crystals is pointed out.
