In astrophysics, the optical constants mainly are used to calculate the optical properties of scatterers, i.e. cross-sections, scattering matrix, etc. ... Optical properties derived from such models have been discussed in some books (see, e.g., [ 2 , 3 ]) and in principle can be calculated by using various light-scattering tools which are freely available via the internet [ 4 ]. ...

... While extensive experience has been garnered in the application of maximum likelihood to stellar photometry with HST (see for example Stetson 1994), comparatively little has been done for galaxy images (see Schade and Elson 1994). ...
