Wave Equations and Functions

Maxwell equations

Helmholts equations for E(r), H(r)

∆E(r) + k2(r)E(r) = 0,

where k is the wavenumber

Vector wave functions Fν(r)

For time-harmonic fieldsE(r, t) = E(r) exp(−iωt)

Solutions

Il’in, Farafonov, Vinokurov (Russia) ELS-XII 2 / 46

Wave Equations and Functions

Additional condition divE(r) = 0 leads to:

Fν(r) = Maν(r) = rot(a ψν(r)),

Fν(r) = Naν(r) = rot rot(a ψν(r))/k ,

where a is a vector, ψν(r) are solutions to

∆ψν + k2ψν = 0.

Il’in, Farafonov, Vinokurov (Russia) ELS-XII 3 / 46

Field/Potential Expansions

It looks natural to search for unknown fields as

E(r) =∑ν

aνFν(r),

or equivalentlyU,V (r) =

∑ν

aνψν(r),

where U,V are scalar potentials, e.g.

E = rot(bU) + rot rot(cV ).

Il’in, Farafonov, Vinokurov (Russia) ELS-XII 4 / 46

Field/Potential Expansions

In all the methods vector/scalar wave functions are represented as:in spherical coordinates (r , θ, ϕ):

ψν(r) = zn(r)Pmn (θ) exp(imϕ),

in spheroidal coordinates (ξ, η, ϕ):

ψν(r) = Rnm(c , ξ)Snm(c , η) exp(imϕ),

where c is a parameter.

So, separation of variables is actually used in all 3 methods.

Separation of Variables Method (SVM)

Field expansions are substituted in the boudary conditions

(Einc + Esca)× n = Eint × n, r ∈ ∂Γ,

where n is the outer normal to the particle surface ∂Γ.The conditions are mutiplied by the angular parts of ψν with differentindices and then are integrated over ∂Γ. This yelds the followingsystem: (

where xinc, xsca, xint are vectors of expansion coefficients, A, . . .F —matrices of surface integrals.Generalised SVM1

Extended Boundary Condition Method (EBCM)

Field expansions are substituted in the extended boundary condition:

rot∫∂Γ

n(r)× Eint(r)G(r′, r)ds − . . . =

{−Einc(r′), r′ ∈ Γ−,

Esca(r′), r′ ∈ Γ+.

Due to linear independence of wave functions we get(0 QsI Qr

where Qs , Qr are matrices, whose elements are surface integrals.

Key questions

1 EBCM, SVM, and PMM use the same field expansions. Does it resultin their similar behavior? How close are they?[Yes and Generally close, but in important detail not.]

2 It is well known from numerical experiments that EBCM with aspherical basis [being a widely used approach] gives high accuracyresults for some shapes, while for some others it cannot provide anyreliable results. Why? What can be said about theoretical applicabilityof EBCM?[We have some answers, but not anything is clear.]

Singularities of analytic continuations of the fields

Obviously, a plane wave has no such singularities.But a plane wave incident at a scatterer is known to produce scatteredfield outside it and incident field inside it.Generally, analytic continuations of both the scattered field (inside thescatterer) and of the internal field (outside it) may have singularitiesdepending on the scatterer shape.

Rayleigh hypothesis

We use a generalized and simplified definition of the term as anassumption that field expansions in terms of wave functionsconverge everywhere up to the scatterer surface.In spherical coordinates and for spherical basis:

max d sca < min r(θ, ϕ) and max r(θ, ϕ) < min d int.

As field expansions are substituted in the boundary conditions,Rayleigh hypothesis seems to be required to be valid.However, we know that the methods provide accurate results whenRayleigh hypothesis is not valid.Do we realy need Rayleigh hypothesis to be valid?

Paradox of the EBCM

EBCM solutions converge even if field expansions used in theboundary conditions diverge.How is this possible?Let’s consider Pattern Equation Method3.Search for far field pattern in terms of angular parts of ψν (as r →∞)As the patterns are defined only in the far field zone, one does notneed convergence of any expansions at scatterer boundary.We found that the infinite systems arisen in EBCM coincide withthose arisen in the PEM.When Rayleigh hypothesis is not valid, EBCM is notmathematically correct, but its applicability is extended in thefar field due to lucky coincindence with PEM.

Equivalence of the EBCM and gSVM systems

It was generally shown earlier (e.g., Schmidt et al., 1998).We have strictly demonstrated that the matrix of EBCM infinitesystem can be transformed into the matrix of gSVM system and viceversa.

Qs = i[CTB− ATD

], Qr = i

[FTB− ETD

],

where A = ASVM , B = BSVM , . . .

If in iPMM residual ∆ = 0, then

APMM = AT∗A + CT∗A, . . .

Hence, iPMM infinite system is also equivalent to gSVM system.

Conclusions

1 Methods are very similar, but have key differencies.2 Methods applicability ranges are affected by singularities.3 Rayleigh hypothesis is required for near field computations.4 EBCM has solvability condition for far field.5 Infinite matrices of the methods’ systems are equivalent.6 Truncated matrices are not.7 Different methods are good for different particles.8 Systems are ill-conditioned from the beginning.9 Because of solvability condition EBCM doesn’t provide accurate

results for layered scatterers.
