117. There are many interesting examples of photons interacting with particle populations; e.g., it was found that thermophoretic particle drift can influence the continuum regime coagulation dynamics of radiating soot aggregates (see ref 97, Section 2.4). Another example, particularly relevant to large-scale combustion furnaces, is the photophoretic augmentation of soot deposition rates.98
