title: Sum regression decomposition of spectral and angle-resolved Mueller matrices from biological reflectors.
abstract: We show spectroscopic Mueller-matrix data measured at multiple incidence angles of the scarab beetle C. aurata. A method of regression decomposition can decompose the Mueller matrix into a set of two matrices representing one polarizer and one dielectric reflector. We also report on a tentative decomposition of the beetle C. argenteola using the same method.
