forward scatter
Scattering into directions forward of a plane through the scattering center and orthogonal to the incident direction. Forward scatter makes up half of the total Rayleigh scatter. This fraction increases with increasing particle size at a given wavelength, so that large particle scatter is predominantly forward scatter. See also asymmetry factor.
