Workspace Method scat_meta_arrayAddTmatrixOldVersion

Description

This method adds particle meta data to the workspace variable
scat_meta_array.

One set of meta data is created and added to the array for each
diameter in the GIN diamter_grid. The size of scat_meta_array
and hence the usage has been extended. For that reason, a short
summary below tells which input parameters are required for certain further
calculations.
