Electromagnetic scattering and absorption by thin walled dielectric cylinders with application to ice crystals

Scattering of electromagnetic waves by many thin cylinders

Electromagnetic wave scattering by many parallel infinite cylinders is studied asymptotically as a → 0. Here a is the radius of the cylinders. It is assumed that the points x̂m are distributed so that N (∆) = 1 a R ∆ N(x)dx[1+o(1)], whereN (∆) is the number of points x̂m = (xm1, xm2) in an arbitrary open subset of the plane xoy, the axes of the cylinders are passing through points x̂m, these axes ...

2 Light Scattering and Absorption by Nonspherical Ice Crystals

Electromagnetic Scattering from Multiple Cylinders

During the last several decades, electromagnetic scattering from multiple cylinders has been an active research topic of in many areas, such as microwave remote sensing, theory of photonic crystals, atmospheric sciences, and so on. Rigorous theoretical treatment is therefore of critical importance. A large body of available studies in the literature concerns with two dimensional scattering, suc...

Source-model technique analysis of transient electromagnetic scattering by dielectric cylinders

This study considers the application of the source-model technique to the solution of the problem of electromagnetic scattering by an arbitrarily shaped dielectric cylinder illuminated by a transient plane wave. The technique is utilised to study the scattering from a dielectric cylinder of circular cross-section and from a cylindrical void of the same cross-section lying in a dielectric medium...

Scattering of electromagnetic waves by many thin cylinders : theory and computational modeling

Electromagnetic (EM) wave scattering by many parallel infinite cylinders is studied asymptotically as a → 0, where a is the radius of the cylinders. It is assumed that the centers of the cylinders x̂m are distributed so that N (∆) = ln( 1 a ) ∫ ∆ N(x)dx[1 + o(1)], where N (∆) is the number of points x̂m = (xm1, xm2) in an arbitrary open subset of the plane xOy, the axes of cylinders are parallel ...
