Setup and conventions for the scattering problem solved with the T-matrix approach. A plane wave with a wavevector k0 with incident angles ([\theta_{\rm i}], [\phi_{\rm i}]) interacts with N spherical atoms, each with individual location (for example, atom p at dp), radius ( ap) and electrostatic potential strength ( np). The scattered wave is observed at observation point P at r in the global reference frame and at individual distances in the local reference frame of the spheres (for example, [|{\bf r}_{p}|]). See discussion in the text for additional details. In practice, the incident plane wave is taken along the +z axis and the structure oriented accordingly.
