Possibilities to suppress completely forward scattering from a dielectric sphere

Numerical conditions are found for which the forward scattering cross section of a dielectric isotropic sphere vanishes.This requires active response of the permittivity.Vanishing extinction efficiency is a necessary but not sufficient condition for the forward scattering efficiency to become zero.
