... To move toward open analysis software, we plan to make the PROS regions subsystem available from processes outside of IRAF. We also plan to make the region descriptor parsing system available for purposes beyond the creation of masks, such as an interface to an image display program, accepting a region descriptor and generating commands to display the region on an image. ... Anticipating two kinds of new requirements, we reconsidered the design of the PROS region descriptor processing subsystem. ...

Traditionally the theory of light scattering by a sphere is called the Mie theory. ... The exact solutions of the Mie problem for an optically active sphere (i.e. a sphere of optically active material [ 7 ]) and for a sphere with an optically active mantle were first obtained in 1974-5 by S.
