Identification of the unique spheroid by rotated and scaled first order polarization tensor

In the applications of electric and electromagnetic, polarization tensor is usually used to describe the perturbation in electrical field induced by the presence of conducting objects. Due to the fact that polarization tensor carries information about geometry and conductivity of those presented con...
