Abstract
The albedo and dichroic polarization of spheroidal particles are studied. For the description of the phase function two asymmetry parameters and characterizing the anisotropy in forward/backward and left/right directions are introduced and calculated. The consideration is based on the solution to the light scattering problem by the Separation of Variables Method (Voshchinnikov and Farafonov, 1993).
