Abstract
The extinction spectrum from single and aggregated hemispheres whose f lat faces lie on a reflecting surface is calculated, and some of the e xpected resonances are found to disappear for specific choices of the direction and the polarization of the incident wave. This resonance-su ppressing effect is fully explained for the case of single hemispheres , whereas for the case of aggregated hemispheres the guidelines for it s explanation are given.
