Symmetry and Multiple Electromagnetic Scattering by a Cluster of Spheres.

Abstract

A method to calculate the electromagnetic scattering properties of a cluster of spheres of arbitrary radii and (complex) refractive indexes is proposed. The approach takes proper account of multiple scattering effects and makes full use of the symmetry properties of the cluster. No approximation is required except for the truncation of the multipolar expansion describing the scattered field. (Author)
