For non-spherical isotropic particles, the classic variant of the RDG approximation does not include the anisotropy of the shape and hence does not give the correct Rayleigh limit, say, for small ellipsoids. ... We call this variant a modified RDG approximation (MRDG). ... First, the MRDG leads to the correct Rayleigh limit. ... The second approach to generalization of the RDG is connected with the use of the Born iterations for the scattering integral equation [ 95 , 124 , 132 , 264 ]. ...

We are now in the midst of the annual Perseid meteor shower. The shower continues through August till 24th, with a broad peak of activity expected after midnight on the night of 12/13th. This shower is one of the most reliable meteor displays of the year. During peak activity, up to 100 observable meteors per hour may enter the Earth's atmosphere. ...
