In this study, we present a Monte Carlo inversion procedure dedicated to the determination of particle size and density from extinction measurements. In order to check the validity of the method, a ray tracing code able to calculate the exact extinction coefficient for a given particle size distribution was developed. The inversion method was then applied to this numerically obtained results in order...
