Abstract: We consider electromagnetic interrogation problems for complex materials involving distributions of polarization mechanisms and also distributions for the parameters in these mechanisms. A theoretical and computational framework for such problems is given. Computational results for specific problems with multiple Debye mechanisms are given in the case of discrete, uniform, log-normal, and log-bi-Gaussian distributions.
