Bremen, Germany, 8 - 12 September, 2003
University of Bremen + Institut für Werkstofftechnik
This conference combines two series: the Workshop on Electromagnetic and Light Scattering (Bremen, 1996; Moscow, 1997; Bremen, 1998) and the Workshop on Light Scattering by Nonspherical Particles (Amsterdam, 1995; Helsinki, 1997; New York, 1998). The first combined conferences were held in Vigo, Spain in 1999, in Halifax, Canada in 2000 and in Gainesville, Florida in 2002.
The conference encompasses all experimental and theoretical aspects of single and multiple scattering of electromagnetic radiation by nonspherical and heterogeneous particles.
Focus:
- optical particle characterization
- astrophysics
- atmospheric applications
- particle on surface scattering
- evanescent wave scattering
- T-matrix method
- arbitrarily shaped 3D particles.
