Addition Laws for Intensities of Radiation Emerging from Scattering Atmospheres Containing Energy Sources

  • Published:
Astrophysics Aims and scope

A group theoretical approach is developed for solving astrophysical radiative transfer problems described in a previous series of papers. Addition laws for observed radiative intensities are derived for the case in which atmospheres not only absorb and scatter radiation incident on them, but radiate themselves because of energy sources contained within them. As an illustration of the application of these laws, several special radiative transfer problems which we believe are of practical interest are discussed.
