Abstract :
A new model for the static polarisability tensor elements of small particles is proposed and investigated. The static polarisability tensor for nearly agglomerated and agglomerated homogeneous dielectric spheres is investigated using a numerical procedure. Excellent agreement is obtained with a recent theoretical formulation for the slightly separated case.
