Fortran code for Electromagnetic Scattering by Spheroids by Peter G. Martin.

• Link 11 Jul 2011

Classical Fortran 77 code based on a Separation of Variables Method scheme using spheroidal development, kindly made available by Shoji Asano, to compute scattering by spheroidal particles.

This code calculates the extinction, scattering and absorption efficiency factors for prolate or oblate homogeneous spheroids. The separation of variables method (SVM) and an original scheme of solution of the light scattering problem are used.
