Particle characterization in dispersed multiphase flows is important in quantifying transport
processes both in fundamental and applied research: Examples include atomization and …

The description of electromagnetic arbitrary shaped beams (eg laser beams) under
expanded forms requires the evaluation of expansion coefficients known as beam shape …

For a physicist, and more generally for a scientist, one of the pleasures in everyday life is to
detect exemplifying manifestations and avatars of the topic he is working on. Why do small …

Filling the gap for a description of the optical properties of small particles with sizes less than
1000 nm and to provide a comprehensive overview on the spectral behavior of …

We present a theoretical description of the scattering of a Gaussian beam by a spherical,
homogeneous, and isotropic particle. This theory handles particles with arbitrary size and …

We describe a toolbox, implemented in Matlab, for the computational modelling of optical
tweezers. The toolbox is designed for the calculation of optical forces and torques, and can …

Generalized Lorenz–Mie theory describes electromagnetic scattering of an arbitrary light
beam by a spherical particle. The computationally most expensive feature of the theory is the …

It has been thirty years since one of the authors (EJD) began a collaboration with Professor
Milton Kerker at Clarkson University in Potsdam, New York using light scattering methods to …

Generalized Lorenz–Mie theory describes electromagnetic scattering of an arbitrary light
beam by a spherical particle. The localized approximation is an analytical function that …

Numerical computations in the framework of the generalized Lorenz–Mie theory require the
evaluation of a new double set of coefficients gn, TMm and gn, TEm (n= 1,…,∞; m=− n,…+ …
