Characterization of bio-particles from light-scattering.

From MaRDI portal





From the authors' preface: The volume is opened with a concise introduction of analytical and numerical methods for computing the electromagnetic scattering by individual particles, ranging from Mie theory to Discrete Dipole Approximation. The Wentzel-Kramer-Brillouin approximation and \(T\)-matrix method are considered in Chap. 1. Chap. 2 gives a detailed overview of optical set-ups of two generations of the Scanning Flow Cytometer. A substantial part of the book is devoted to methods solving the inverse light-scattering problem for individual particles (Chap. 3). We present algorithms that allow us to determine the characteristics of spherical particles and prolate spheroids. The applications described in Chap. 4 involve the analysis of polymer beads and bispheres, milk fat particles, red blood cells, E. coli cells, blood platelets, and lymphocytes. The book is directed to graduate students, scientists and engineers working in electromagnetic scattering and its applications.
