Abstract
By use of the orthogonality and normalization integrals developed by McCormick and Siewert (1970) a set of singular integral equations suitable forF n -method is derived for non-coherent spectral line formation problem in finite media.F n -equations for exit distributions are used to develop some algebraic equations with suitable recursion relations.
