Abstract
A cylindrical localized approximation to speed up numerical computations in generalized Lorenz–Mie theory for cylinders, in a special case of perpendicular illumination, was recently introduced and rigorously justified. We generalize this approximation to the case when the cylinder is arbitrarily located and arbitrarily oriented in a Gaussian beam.
