On the far field patterns for electromagnetic scattering by a chiral obstacle in a chiral environment

A time-harmonic plane electromagnetic wave is scattered by a chiral body in a chiral environment. The body is either a perfect conductor, or a dielectric, or a scatterer with an impedance surface. Using the Huygens's principle, we construct in closed forms both the left-circularly polarized and right-circularly polarized electric far field patterns for such chiral media. We prove reciprocity relations and general scattering theorems for chiral materials which are a generalization of those obtained by Twersky for achiral electromagnetic scattering. In the special case when the directions of incidence and observation are the same we prove the associated forward scattering theorems.
