Light Scattering by Systems of Particles comprehensively develops the theory of the null-field method, while covering almost all aspects and current applications. The Null-field Method with Discrete Sources is an extension of the Null-field Method (also called T-Matrix Method) to compute light scattering by arbitrarily shaped dielectric particles. It also incorporates FORTRAN programs and exemplary simulation results that demonstrate all aspects of the latest developments of the method. Worked examples of the application of the FORTRAN programs show readers how to adapt or modify the programs for his specific application.

Industry Reviews

From the reviews:

"The well-written book is devoted to the light scattering of diverse particles encountered in practical applications. ... the book is written for physics and engineering students, and for practical researchers ... . The development of the subject of the monograph is well-documented by a comprehensive bibliography. An Index contains the most important terms used in the book." (Georg Hebermehl, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1163, 2009)
