Hi,

I am using Maetzlers Mie Scattering Script from 2002 to calculate Phase Matrix entries. But under no conditions I am able to produce imaginary scattering amplitudes S1 and S2 which is kind of strange to me because in the phase matrix they produce the side entries. I know that some side entries vanish for spheres - or do they all actually?

So my question is basically: What are the conditions of imaginary scattering amplitudes.

Thank you and best regards
