Electromagnetic and Potential Scattering from a Radially Inhomogeneous Sphere

Classical Physics 2013-07-08 v1

Abstract

Aspects of of plane wave electromagnetic scattering by a radially inhomogeneous sphere is discussed. The vector problem is reduced to two scalar radial `Schr\"odinger-like' equations, and a connection with time-independent potential scattering theory is exploited to draw several conclusions about specific refractive index profiles.
