Abstract:
We report the use of lateral vibration of speckle patterns in studying the particle sizing of bulk powdery clay sample. A two- exposure recording was made on a high -resolution holographic plate placed in the observation plane. The first exposure was taken when the laser -speckles without the sample vibrated laterally and the second when the laser -speckles and the sample vibrated laterally together. The plate was photographically processed to obtain a specklegram. The analysis of the fringe pattern from the decoded specklegram gave the particle sizes in the sample.
