Coherent backscattering effects with Discrete Dipole Approximation method

We use the Discrete Dipole Approximation method to simulate light scattering from a dense cloud of wavelength-sized spherical particles. We will mimic the set-up that was used in recent articles from Mishchenko et al.[1, 2] where the superposition T-matrix method was used to simulate the scattering characteristics. We will show that the same demonstration of the evolution of the coherent backscattering phenomena can be produced with the Discrete Dipole Approximation.
