Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
The capabilities and resolution of the rainbow technique were extended to estimate the size distribution and composition of droplets in liquid–liquid systems. For these droplets, essentially characterized by a low relative refractive index (m ≈ 1.001–1.20), the first-order rainbow is localized in the near-forward to sideways region. It exhibits an unusually higher contrast in the parallel polarization due to the vicinity of the rainbow and the Brewster angles. A numerical study revealed that a few thousand to ten thousand droplets were necessary to obtain reliable estimations of the first moments of typical droplet size distributions when the diffractometer is operated as an ensemble averaging technique. The importance of the accuracy of the light scattering model and the inverse methods used are also documented. Experimental results performed on free-rising submillimeter to millimeter droplets of various compositions showed that a global resolution of 1% to 5% of their mean diameter and about 1.6 × 10 of the dispersion on their refractive index (i.e., 3% in the mixture fraction of oily droplets in water) could be achieved, which enhances the perspectives on mixing and extraction studies in liquid–liquid systems.
