1. VCRMEll2D

VCRMEll2D is designed to predict the scattering of a plane wave by an ellipsoid in the plane of symmetry. With this software, we can follow step by step the path of rays in a particle and to check the variation of the curvature radii of the wavefront by the divergence / convergence on the particle surface. It also allows to calculate the scattering diagrams in all directions.
The scattering diagram ccalculated by the VCRM is compared in this figure with a experimental result.
