A NEW DIAGRAMMATIC SUMMATION FOR THE EFFECTIVE DIELECTRIC RESPONSE OF COMPOSITES

We extended a previously developed diagrammatic formulation for the calculation of the effective dielectric response of composites prepared as a random, homogeneous, and isotropic distribution of small spherical inclusions in an otherwise homogeneous matrix. This is done within the long-wavelength, dipolar approximation in the low-density regime of inclusions. We propose a new diagrammatic summation and we compare our results with two recently reported computer simulations.
