TRANSPORT OF RADIATION FROM A POINT SOURCE IN STRATIFIED SCATTERING MEDIA WITH REFLECTING BOUNDARIES

OSTI ID:4183877
This investigation is a continuation of work on the multiple scattering of radiation from point sources by stratified media. The technique was extended to include the case of reflection at the boundary. Specific hand calculations were carried out for the two following cases: (1) A pcint source lying in the midplane of a uniform, isotropically scattering, non-absorbing plane slab cloud of thickness two mean free paths. The cloud is bounded on one side by a (Lambert) ground of albedo omega /sub o/ = 0.4 and by a vacuum on the other side. (2) A point source lying in the midplane of a uniform, non-absorbing plane slab cloud of thickness three mean free paths. The scattering is linear in cos THETA , and radiation crossing either boundary is considered to be lost. (auth)
