Annotation: This article discusses the Mie theory, which was developed by the German physicist Gustav Mie in 1908 for the law of scattering by spherical particles. Later versions of the theory were developed by Stratton and Van de Hulst, and various sets of tables were issued. The Mie theory is particularly useful for atmospheric problems as it can be applied to all particle sizes. The theory assumes an oscillating electromagnetic field of radiation incident on a homogeneous dielectric sphere of radius r and dielectric constant €. The energy may be scattered or absorbed by the particle, and in the space surrounding the particle, the scattered energy has the form of a diverging spherical wave.

Keywords: Mie theory, scattering by spherical particles, atmospheric problems, electromagnetic radiation, dielectric sphere, scattering angle, polarized radiation.
