Abstract
Explicit asymptotic formulas are derived for the positions, widths, and strengths of the morphology-dependent resonances in Mie scattering. These formulas are compared with numerical data and found to be highly accurate, especially for the low-order resonances most relevant to nonlinear processes. They permit the interpretation of experimental data on light scattering from microdroplets without resorting to the full apparatus of the Mie scattering formalism.Keywords
