Simplified phenomenological model for randomly birefringent strongly spun fibers.
A simplified phenomenological model for the description of randomly birefringent, strongly spun fibers is proposed. It is shown that the spinning, besides causing an apparent reduction of the linear random birefringence, may also induce an apparent deterministic circular birefringence.
