[内容简介]
The book consists of 3 chapters with 12 contributions written by world-leading experts in correspondent areas. The first chapter is devoted to the study of light scattering by a single particle and also by the ensembles of particles in the single scatterring approximation valid for low concentration of scatteres. In particular, ligth scattering by ice crystals (1.1), soil particles (1.2) and biological particles (1.3) is considered. The authors pay attention to both theoretical and experimental result
