If the particles involved in this process have shorter wavelengths, another type of this process occurs and makes the sky seem blue.
One formula describing this process gives a cross section at low and high frequencies.  An "inverse" form of one type of this phenomenon displays the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich effect and causes the distortion of cosmic microwave background radiation. Changes in vibrational energy occur in an (*) inelastic type of this process. If the particles involved in this process have shorter wavelengths, another type of this process occurs and makes the sky seem blue. The Thomson, Compton, Raman, and Rayleigh are all types of, for 10 points, which phenomenon in which light or other radiation deviates from a straight path.
One formula describing this process gives a cross section at low and high frequencies.
