Légköroptika
Most kaptam választ Les-tõl a színes kondenzemmel kapcsolatban:
Hello Monika,
I have not seen that effect before.
I think what is happening is that water droplets or ice crystals are growing in size after they form close to the engine exhaust. The distance from the airplane is therefore a measure of time from droplet or ice crystal formation and particle size. The colours are iridescence and the different colours result from the different particle sizes along the exhaust trail.
That"s a very interesting picture! Can I put it on Atmospheric Optics please? With full credit to you of course - you retain all rights.
All the best,
Les
