Escape Probability and Average Numbers of Photon Scattering Events. II. Monochromatic Isotropic Scattering in a One-Dimensional Medium and Plane Media
摘要
As examples of applying the formulas from part I we examine scattering in a one-dimensional medium for which all the characteristics of the radiative field are expressed in terms of elementary functions and (three-dimensional) isotropic monochromatic scattering. Some properties of the Ambartsumyan function are studied and the asymptotes of the average numbers of photon scattering events in an optically thick plane layer are derived.
