<jats:p>An analysis of the scattering of transverse elastic waves by spherical obstacles is presented. The scatterer is taken to be (a) a cavity, (b) a rigid sphere, (c) a fluid-filled cavity, and (d) to consist of an elastic material with properties different from those of the surrounding material. The problems are carried as far as possible analytically without approximations and are reported as matrix equations. The solution of these equations yields the expansion coefficients that describe the waves which are scattered outward from the obstacle and which are excited within the scatterer. A general expression for the scattering cross section offered to a transverse wave has been derived. The Rayleigh approximation is then considered in detail for three of the cases.</jats:p>
