Abstract The single particle phase function and linear polarization for large stochastically deformed spheres have been calculated by Monte-Carlo simulation using the geometric optics approximation /1/. The radius vector of a particle is assumed to obey a bivariate log-normal distribution with three free parameters: mean radius, its standard deviation and the coherence length of the autocorrelation function. All reflections and refractions which include sufficient energy have been included. Real and imaginary parts of the refractive index can be varied without any restrictions. Results and comparisons with some experiments are presented. Applications of this theory to the photometric properties of atmosphereless bodies and interplanetary dust are discussed.
