Title: Remote-sensing gas measurements with coherent Rayleigh-Brillouin scattering

Journal Article · · Applied Physics Letters
DOI:https://doi.org/10.1063/1.4959778· OSTI ID:1313774

Here, we measure the coherent Rayleigh-Brillouin scattering (CRBS) signal integral as a function of the recorded gas pressure in He, Co2, SF6, and air, and confirm the already established quadratic dependence of the signal on the gas density. Finally, we propose the use of CRBS as an effective diagnostic for the remote measurement of gas' density (pressure) and temperature, as well as polarizability, for gases of known composition.
