Scientific paper

The Fredholm integral equation method (FIM), originally introduced by Holt et al. to solve the light scattering problem for ellipsoidal particles, is reininvestigated by taking into account a recent great progress in numerical computers. A numerical code optimized for vector-processing computers is developed, and is applied to the light scattering by spherical and spheroidal particles. The results for these particles are compared with those by the Mie theory and by Asano and Yamamoto, respectively, and it is confirmed that the agreement with both of them is satisfactory. Sample calculations are also performed for the 'oblique' incidence, in which the direction of incidence is not parallel nor perpendicular to the symmetry axis of the particle.
