Light transmission by a dispersive filter filled with anisotropic particles

Stokes parameters for light scattering from a Faraday-active sphere

“…( 31). It also holds for a single anisotropic particle in the Rayleigh-Gans approximation [14], [15].…”

“…An alternative derivation consists to take the limit θ → 0 so that R 1 = R 2 or θ → π so that R 1 = −R 2 in Eqs. (15)(16)(17)(18). This yields,…”
