Extinction and polarization of radiation by absorbing spheroids: shape/size effects and benchmark results

N. V. Voshchinnikov, V. B. Il'in, Th. Henning +2

We use the separation of variables and T-matrix methods to calculate the optical properties of homogeneous spheroids with refractive indices from m = 1.3+0.0i up to 3+4i. It is fou…
