{wiki=Ewald–Oseen_extinction_theorem}
The Ewald–Oseen extinction theorem is a fundamental result in the field of electromagnetism, particularly in the study of light scattering and the interaction of light with small particles. The theorem addresses how the incident light field is affected when it encounters a particle, specifically regarding the scattering of light by the particle.
