On the Reflection of Light from an Inhomogeneous Shell,

Abstract

The main contribution to the reflected field from a radially inhomogeneous spherical shell is determined. It is shown that it is much smaller in amplitude than the field reflected by a perfectly conducting sphere coated with the same type of radially inhomogeneous dielectric. (Author)
