An extension of the standard method of fundamental solutions is applied in order to obtain numerically the solution of the problem. The electric fields are expressed in terms of the fundamental solutions of the corresponding equations in dyadic form. Completeness and linear independence for appropriate systems of functions are proved which will be used in order to solve approximately the above scattering problem. Using the transmission conditions, the scattering problem is transformed into a linear algebraic system with coefficient matrix which consists of chiral and achiral blocks. When the measure of chirality vanishes, our results cover the case of an achiral dielectric scatterer. ER -
