Multiple Scattering of Waves. II. ``Hole Corrections'' in the Scalar Case
J. G. Fikioris, P. C. Waterman
Source abstract
Scalar multiple scattering effects due to a random distribution of spheres are considered in detail. Transformation from a volume to a surface integral allows one to take account of the ``hole corrections'' involved in the equation of multiple scattering, and yields a secular equation for the propagation constant K of the composite medium. In the low-frequency limit a result is given which appears to be exact over the entire range 0 ≤ δ ≤ 1, where δ is the fractional volume occupied by scatterers. Also in this limit, the boundary conditions appropriate to the boundary of the composite medium are established from examination of the total transmitted and reflected fields.
