Abstract:
A series of measurements were made at different light wavelengths of transmittance though various thicknesses of dry sand grains from a variety of size classes. Transmittance was found to decrease approximately exponentially with increasing sand layer thickness and decreasing grain size. Transmittance did not vary significantly with incident light wavelength. It is concluded that for any dry sand, a layer with the thickness of seven millimeters, and possibly much less, is capable of reducing the transmittance of incident light to 0.05% or less.
