Hi. I want to obtain some analytical solutions for electromagnetic scattering of different shapes. i saw somewhere that the book named "Electromagnetic And Acoustic Scattering Simple Shapes" of Piergiorgio L. Uslenghi, Thomas B. Senior, J. J. Bowman, is very good but i dont find in internet.

Does someone has this book in pdf or know a other book with a wide range of analytical solutions of scattering?

Mainly i want to find a analytical solution for sphere scattering by a planar wave.

Thanks

GTD/UTD?

Yes, everthing. Simply, i need a analytical solution of a scattering sphere by a plane wave. It does not matter the method which gives the solution with.

Do you have anything?

It's not my area of expertise, but I've been exposed to GTD/UTD. I understood that diffraction from the sphere was one of the canonical solutions within GTD. But it's not shown in the original paper...

'Geometrical Theory of Diffraction', Joseph B. Keller. PDF available here .

Some in-depth Googling turned up: HIGH-FREQUENCY DIFFRACTION BY A SPHERE, C. L. Tang, Canadian Journal of Physics, VOL. 39, Issue 10: 1486-1494, DOI: 10.1139/p61-175. As with most such papers, seems to be behind a paywall.
