Using this scattering formalism it is possible to describe the total energy loss from a beam of light passing through a cell suspension as arising from two processes: the elastic scattering by the cell interface and molecular absorption by the chlorophyll molecules inside the cell (18).
Joachim's work has been his introduction of elastic scattering quantum chemistry (ESQC) theory to explain tunneling junctions between metal electrodes and molecules, now a standard for STM image calculations.
In the absence of resonances it can be shown that the PV helicity dependence of the total cross section vanishes if only elastic scattering is present and that both the PV neutron spin rotation and the PV helicity dependence of the total cross section with inelastic channels are constant in the limit of zero neutron energy [23].
