Conference Service Mandl

abstract: It was 100 years ago , for the very first time a full solution of the scattering of light by homogeneous spheres was given by Mie (1908), and since then it has been used extensively in almost all areas of science; viz. chemistry, astronomy, meteorology. The participants will mainly be from college/university (teachers and research students). We plan to hold lectures covering the above topics in the morning and early afternoon sessions and demonstrations/ experiments later in the afternoon. The main topics proposed to be covered are: Basic Light Scattering Theory, Scattering by non-spherical particles, Scattering by porous, fluffy, composite particles, scattering by oriented particles, Scattering by commentary dust, Interstellar extinction and polarization, light scattering in planetary atmospheres.

abstract: The conference is devoted to the latest developments and state-of-the-art reviews in subjects/areas such as: Specialty Optical Fibers, Microstructured Optical Fibers and Devices, Nonlinear Fiber and Guided Wave Optics, Nanophotonics, Micro fluidic Guided Wave Devices, Guided Wave Quantum Optics, Fiber Amplifiers and Lasers, Optical Communication Systems, Integrated Optics, Biophotonics, Optical MEMS, Plasmonics, and Optical Fiber Sensors and Components.
