A 75 nm silicon sphere in air: forward-to-backward scattering, Fu et al. 2013, Fig. 1a Fu et al., Nat. Commun. 4, 1527 (2013): F/B peaks near 8 at 660 nm (the first Kerker condition) and F = B at 500 nm (electric dipole) and 603 nm (magnetic dipole); the paper names no silicon data, so the peak height depends on the table chosen. From crosscheck/classics/fu_2013.py, which also checks the minimum below 0.5 near 564 nm.
