No. It is not "too far". Mie's theory is being mentioned by Tony Smith:dant said:Ark: I don't know if this is useful for you or not but there is some interesting
theories (Mie theory and the Debye series) regarding light here and some
interesting graphs (geometry?) involving light and it's properties? I don't
want to 'vector' you from your focus on bigger matters, but here it is for
