Electromagnetic scattering by magnetic spheres

Kerker, M., Wang, D.-S., Giles, C. L.·1983·Journal of the Optical Society of America

Abstract

A number of unusual electromagnetic scattering effects for magnetic spheres are described. When ∊ = μ, the backscatter gain is zero; the scattered radiation is polarized in the same sense as the incident radiation. In the small-particle (or long-wavelength) limit, conditions are described for zero forward scatter, for complete polarization of scattered radiation in other directions, and for asymmetry of forward scatter to backscatter. The special case in the small-particle limit of m = 1, i.e., μ = 1/∊, provides interesting special instances of complete polarization and forward-scatter-to-backscatter asymmetry.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
