APPROXIMATE SOLUTION OF THE FUNDAMENTAL PROBLEM OF RADIANT ENERGY TRANSFER IN A PLANE-PARALLEL LAYER (CHAPTER X)

Abstract

Study concerned the scattering of monochromatic radiation in a plane layer illuminated by parallel rays under stationary conditions. The indicatrix of scattering is held as arbitrary. First the case of pure scattering is considered, then the process of true absorption is included. The equations obtained are applied to the atmospheres of the earth and planets and to the sea.
