Abstract
Following the recent analyses of extinction by Berg et al. [J Opt Soc Am A 2008;25:1504-1513; J Opt Soc. Am A 2008;25:1514-1520], we show that although it is possible to define and measure the extinction cross section for a single particle using a detector of light facing the incident beam, this requires certain theoretical assumptions and experimental precautions.
