Extinction Coefficients for Dielectric and Conducting Doublets of Spheres

Published

Author(s)

Egon Marx

Abstract

The extinction cross-sections of doublets of polystyrene and carbon spheres are determined using the optical theorem. The forward scattering amplitude is computed using the single integral equation method. The extinction cross-sections of the doublets are close to twice those of single spheres. Results are compared to those obtained using the order-of-scattering method.
