EDITORIAL INFORMATION

Electromagnetic wave scattering is an active, interdisciplinary area of research with myriad practical applications in fields ranging from atomic physics to medical imaging to geoscience and remote sensing. It is our aim to present in three volumes a balanced picture of both theoretical and numerical methods that are commonly used for tackling electromagnetic wave scattering problems. While our book places an emphasis on remote sensing applications, the materials covered here should be useful for students and researchers from a variety of backgrounds as in, for example, composite materials, photonic devices, optical thin films, lasers, optical tomography, and X-ray litography. Introductory chapters and sections are also added so that the materials can be readily understood by graduate students.

(Extracted from Preface).
