Scientific paper

A technique is presented for the calculation of efficiency factors for the radiation pressure of ensembles of randomly oriented, axially symmetric nonspherical grains. The computational scheme corresponds to the T-matrix approach developed by Waterman (1971), and numerical results are given for the calculation of randomly oriented spheroidal grains. The method presented is demonstrated to be effective in computations that involve grains that are smaller than or equal to the wavelength.
