| Feb 4, 2019 at 15:46 | comment | added | Alchimista | Ron do you think that night/day alternance might impact the rekative amount of red light bent down earth. I am "obsessed" by the fact that morning and afternoon light looks very different in clear days. No scattering - I am not speaking why sunrise and sunset are reddush but on why morning light is crispy and whiter while afternoon is more yellow. My last chance is a bit more (relative) bending of reds in warmer atmosphere. | |

| Sep 22, 2011 at 12:15 | comment | added | Ron Maimon | @George: I meant to say that the temperature T is a function only of the molecular velocity, not the density, but you are right, the end formula had an idiotic mistake in it, because it is expressed in terms of pressure and temperature. I fixed it. The reason that I don't concentrate on one subect vs. another is that I know everything. | |
