THE ENERGY DEPENDENT MILNE PROBLEM WITH A SIMPLE SCATTERING KERNEL
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:4688833
An exact solution to the energy dependent Milne problem was obtained using a simple scattering model. The extrapolation distance and angular distribution at the surface of the half-space were calculated using the free gas scattering cross sections. Zero absorption is assumed throughout. It is shown by comparison with numerical results obtained from THERMOS and variational methods that the extrapolation distance and angular distribution are insensitive to the specific properties of the scattering kernel and depend mainly on the energy dependence of the mean free path.
