Abstract
A new algorithm of the relaxation method is developed for the inversion of forward scattered light to obtain the size distribution of spherical particles. Numerical tests are performed for a laser particle analyzer using the Mie theory and the diffraction approximation. The algorithm efficiency, in the presence of experimental noises, is studied. The results show that the technique is fast in convergence, stable against random noise and insensitive to the distribution of particles and the initial trial distribution.
