The absolute value of the transition probability of the Rayleigh scattering is computed for the first time and applied to the scattering of solar light with molecules in the atmosphere and to the laser scattering with nanopartilces. The probability has a new contribution of unique properties from long-range correlations specific to the quantum mechanics. The magnitude is sufficient to resolve longstanding puzzle on diffusion lights in the sky and anomalous photon spectrum in laser experiments. The earth's albedo from the new calculations on Rayleigh scattering agrees with observations with satelites.
