Abstract

The anomalous diffraction approximation is used to prove optical equivalence of randomly oriented ellipsoidal, polydisperse randomly oriented spheroidal and polydisperse spherical particles for extinction, scattering and absorption cross sections. The distribution functions over the sizes, and shapes of particles are presented. The correctness of proved statements is illustrated by numerical results with help EBCM (extended boundary condition method) for spheroidal particles and Mie theory for spherical particles.
