Heiligenschein and related phenomena in divergent light
When seen in divergent light, atmospheric optical phenomena could appear to be modified. We describe some geometric and retroreflectional effects of light divergence on heiligenschein and related phenomena that, to our knowledge, have not been previously reported.

| Zusammenfassung: | When seen in divergent light, atmospheric optical phenomena could appear to be modified. We describe some geometric and retroreflectional effects of light divergence on heiligenschein and related phenomena that, to our knowledge, have not been previously reported. These geometric effects are compared with and set in relation to the geometric effects on other atmospheric optical phenomena. |
