On Near-Horizon Maximum Brightness of Cloudless Sky

On Near-Horizon Maximum Brightness of Cloudless Sky

The brightness angular structure of the cloudless sky is studied based on the model of the sunlight single scattering. It is shown that the so-called near-horizon maximum of the sky brightness can be described within the framework of this model. Physical mechanism of arising of this maximum is analy...
