The measurement of light scattering by particles is routinely employed in the majority of science and engineering fields. The universal importance of electromagnetic scattering combined with recent developments in efficient numerical algorithms and experimental techniques are helping to expand the scope and utility of using nonspherical particle scattering as a research tool in astrophysics, atmospheric radiation, biology, biomedical optics, optical engineering, oceanography, planetary and space physics, radar meteorology, and remote sensing.Light, Scattering by Nonspherical Particles: Theory, Measurements, and Applications is the first systematic volume on light scattering by nonspherical particles and its practical applications. This comprehensive and unified volume features up-to-date theoretical and numerical techniques, advances in laboratory measurements, and discussions of practical applications to various fields of geophysics. * The first systematic and comprehensive treatment of electromagnetic scattering by nonspherical particles and its applications * Individual chapters are written by leading experts in respective areas * Includes a survey of all the relevant literature scattered over dozens of basic and applied research journals * Consistent use of unified definitions and notation makes the book a coherent volume * An overview chapter provides a concise general introduction to the subject of light scattering by nonspherical particles * Theoretical chapters describe specific easy-to-use computer codes publicly available on the World Wide Web * Extensively illustrated with over 200 figures, 4 in color
