• Link to the 7th Conference on Electromagnetic and Light Scattering by Nonspherical Particles

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.

Hatfield, England, 7-12 September 2008

This 11th Conference falls in the year of the centenary celebration of the publication of an epoch-making paper in scattering theory by Gustav Mie. It will bring together scientists and engineers from around the world who are actively involved in research into light scattering and will address theoretical developments and simulations, laboratory and field experiments, measurements and applications.

Scope
Gustav Mie’s original 1908 paper on the colour of Gold colloids is continuously cited. This demonstrates that light scattering by spherical particles is still a large topic of interest in different scientific disciplines. These include e.g. astrophysics, optical particle characterization and computational graphics.
