Electromagnetic wave scattering from two interacting small spherical particles. Influence of their optical constants, ε and μ

In this research, the influence of the optical constants ε and μ on the scattering patterns of a system consisting of two interacting Rayleigh particles is analyzed. We study specific scattering configurations in which the particles are separated by a fixed distance and where the connecting axis has fixed orientations with respect to the incident electromagnetic field. Multiple scattering effects and how they are affected by the optical properties of the particles are considered.
