An exact semi-analytical solution to the arbitrarily shaped beam scattering by a chiral object is propose through expanding the scattered and internal fields in terms of appropriate spherical vector wave functions. By using the boundary conditions and the method of moments technique, the unknown expansion coefficients are determined. For incidence of a Gaussian beam, zero-order Bessel beam and Hertzian electric dipole radiation numerical results of the normalized differential scattering cross section are given to a chiral spheroid and chiral circular cylinder of finite length, and the scattering characteristics are discussed concisely.
