A study of light scattering by wavelength-sized particles covered by much smaller grains using the superposition T-matrix method

By using the results of a direct, numerically exact solution of the Maxwell equations we analyze the behavior of the light scattering characteristics for polydisperse spherical particles covered with a large number of smaller grains. We show that the effect of the presence of microscopic dust on the...
