Abstract

A simple modification of the Rayleigh-Gans approximation for homogeneous prolate cylinders are presented. It is shown that the structure of the phase function, calculated by the modified Rayleigh-Gans approximation, is more close to that, obtained by the T-matrix method, then do the classical Rayleigh-Gans approximation.
