We present a numerical study of the spectral evolution of the linear polarization degree at right-angle scattering configuration (P L (90 • )) for two different particle systems: an isolated nanosphere and a nanodimer composed of two finite size spherical particles separated by a gap distance d. We shall focus on the influence of charge oscillation modes other than the dipolar on the linear polarization degree of the scattered light. The possibility of using this alternative parameter for
