The Tyndall effect is light scattering by particles in a colloid such as a very fine suspension (a sol). Also known as Tyndall scattering , it is similar to Rayleigh scattering , in that the intensity of the scattered light is inversely proportional to the fourth power of the wavelength , so blue light is scattered much more strongly than red ...
