N2 - Multiple-scattering calculations (for scattering angle THETA equals 90 degree ) including single, double, triple, and fourth orders of scattering are compared with laboratory dye-laser scattering data as functions of wavelength. The experimental results show good agreement with the theoretical calculations, thus supporting the theoretical model. Up to an optical depth of approximately equals 1. 8, the fourth order of scattering is negligible. The double-scattering curve vs wavelength contains fluctuations with maximal values in the same regions as the corresponding single-scattering curve. The triple-scattering flux does not vary significantly as a function of wavelength; its fluctuations do not correspond directly to the fluctuations in the single scattering curve. The sum of all orders of scattering for an optical depth of approximately equals 1. 8 causes the regions of maxima to remain pronounced although they are relatively reduced.
