Abstract
Abstract The validity of various soft particle approximations has been examined for the scattering of light by a homogeneous dielectric sphere. A scalar analogue of the S-approximation has been presented. It is shown that this much simpler approximation could be nearly as good as the sophisticated S-approximation itself. Numerical results for the extinction and the scattered intensities are examined over a wide refracted index and size parameter domain. The anomalous diffraction approximation has also been included in numerical comparisons.
