Rainbow of a deformed drop simulated by VCRM.

VCRM predits better the positions and the intensities of Airy bows than the theory of Airy in comparison with the rigorous theory of Debye.

Comparison of the scattering patterns of a pendent drop obtained experimentally (a), (b) and simulated by VCRM (c), (d).
