“…Subsequent papers concerned the case of femtosecond pulse illumination [109], the case of arbitrary-shaped incident beams [110], scattering by a confocal multilayered spheroidal particle [111], scattering of a shaped beam by a spheroid having layers with nonconfocal boundaries [112], and the investigation of resonant spectra of a spheroidal microcavity [113]. Let us also mention studies of scattering of a Gaussian beam by a conducting spheroidal particle with a confocal dielectric coating [114], scattering of a Gaussian beam described by a localized beam model by a spheroidal particle [115], scattering of a spheroidal particle containing an embedded sphere [116,117], scattering of a Gaussian beam by a conducting spheroidal particle having a nonconfocal dielectric coating [118], scattering of Gaussian beam by a spherical particle containing a spheroidal inclusion [119], scattering by a spheroidal particle illuminated by two on-axis Gaussian beams [120], and near-field scattering by dielectric spheroidal particles [121]. Other research on spheroid scattering has been pursued by Xu and his collaborators.…”
