From: Enhanced Forward Scattering of Ellipsoidal Dielectric Nanoparticles
The total scattering efficiency with corresponding multipole contributions of oblate ellipsoid nanoparticles for different aspect ratio a/b, ranging from 1 to 1.6. Q a1 (ED) and Q b1 (MD) represent the electric and magnetic dipole resonances, respectively. Q a2 (EQ) and Q b2 (MQ) represent the electric and magnetic quadrupole resonances, respectively. Q a3 and Q b3 represent the electric and magnetic octupole resonances, respectively. The arrows show the locations of corresponding multipole contributions
