Electromagnetic scattering by a homogeneous chiral obstacle in a chiral environment

Time-harmonic electromagnetic waves are scattered by a homogeneouschiral obstacle embedded in a chiral environment. The correspondingtransmission problem is reduced, via Bohren's decomposition,to an integral equation over the interface between the obstacleand the surrounding medium. This integral equation is shownto be uniquely solvable except for a discrete set of electromagneticparameters of the obstacle.
