New Improvements for Mie Scattering Calculations

New improvements to compute Mie scattering quantities are presented. They are based on a detailed analysis of the various sources of error in Mie computations and on mathematical justifications. The algorithm developed on these improvements proves to be reliable and efficient, without size ($x=2πR/λ$) nor refractive index ($m=m_R-{\rm i}m_I$) limitations, and the user has a choice to fix in advance the desired precision in the results. It also includes a new and efficient method to initiate the downward recurrences of Bessel functions.
