4. Gaussian beam One simple solution to the paraxial Helmholtz equation provides the paraboloidal wave Another solution of the paraxial Helmholtz equation provides the Gaussian beam.

5. Electric-field vector within zeroth-order approximation in a paraxial Gaussian beam

6. Eqn given in the paper is incorrect

10. What is the fundamental difference between the Rayleigh, Mie, and Optical regimes? With Rayleigh scattering, the electric field is assumed to be invariant in the vicinity of the particle Taken from the course notes of Radar Metrology by Prof. Bob Rauber (UIUC) http://www.atmos.uiuc.edu/courses/atmos410-fa04/presentations.html

The angular patterns of the scattered intensity from particles of three sizes: (a) small particles, (b) large particles, and (c) larger particles Rayleigh scattering pattern Taken from the course notes of Radar Metrology by Prof. Bob Rauber (UIUC) http://www.atmos.uiuc.edu/courses/atmos410-fa04/presentations.html

12. E inc incident plane wave Dielectric Sphere (water drop) A plane wave with electric field E inc induces an electric dipole p in a small sphere. The induced dipole is parallel to the direction of E inc which is also the direction of polarization of the incident wave. p Taken from the course notes of Radar Metrology by Prof. Bob Rauber (UIUC) http://www.atmos.uiuc.edu/courses/atmos410-fa04/presentations.html
