Abstract
A new theory of the rainbow is proposed and compared with the exact Mie solution. There is good agreement over a much broader range of angles and size parameters than for the Airy theory. The improvement is particularly remarkable for electric polarization. The treatment can be extended to atomic, molecular, and nuclear rainbow scattering.
