Abstract
An expression is obtained for the density distribution of the optical thickness in a randomly inhomogeneous medium such as a boiling layer. In the approximation of scattering “forward” and “backward” with respect to the direction of the ray but with allowance for the angular distribution of the radiation, the problem of the transmissivity and reflectivity is solved for the randomly inhomogeneous medium.
