  1. DLR Lab tests 7 March 2011 Eyjafjalla ground samples Diluter 1/100 Separator of sample lines (Flow rate : 2.6 – 3.2 l/min) Bottle for ash particles mixing Grimm/OPC Polar Nephelometer Exhaust tube connected to pump

  2. FIRST RUN (12:18 – 12:54) 104 Grimm part. conc. (l-1 mm-1) 0 Total Particle concentration (GRIMM data)

  3. PN measured phase function

  4. Interpretation of the PN measured optical properties Inversion model developed by Dubovik et al. (2006) for aerosol (AERONET) and adapted to contrail and ash particles by V. Shcherbakov (LaMP) ● Measurements : Scattering phase function (PN) ● Retrieved parameters : - Refractive index (real and imaginary components) - Particle size distribution - Distribution of spherical / aspherical particle ratio (SAR) Aspherical particles = mixture of oblate / prolate spheroids (0.5 / 1.5 aspect ratios). ● Validation of the results : - FSSP-300 / FSSP-100 / Grimm particle size distribution

  5. DLR Lab tests 7 March 2011 Eyjafjalla ground samples Grimm Extret. = 1.36 km-1 gret. = 0.70 n = 1.49 + 0.0005 i Spherical / aspherical partitioning (SAR) = 32% 32% of spherical particles and 68% of aspherical particles
