Synopsis

Creating Materials with a Desired Refraction Coefficient, Second Edition, provides a recipe for creating materials with a desired refraction coefficient, and the many-body wave scattering problem for many small impedance bodies. The physical assumptions make the multiple scattering effects essential. Based on this theory, a recipe for creating materials with a desired refraction coefficient is given. Technological problems are formulated which, when solved, make the theory practically applicable. The Importance of of producing a small particle with a desired boundary impedance is emphasized, and inverse scattering with non-over-determined scattering data is considered.

This new edition will include two new chapters on inverse problem of finding reflection coefficient from scattering data and on symmetry properties of scattering theory.
