Abstract

The half-space albedo problem and the constant source problem have been solved for a combination of the linearly anisotropic scattering and İnönü’s scattering functions. The linear transport equation for extremely anisotropic scattering kernel can be converted into an equivalent equation with a linearly anisotropic scattering kernel and the modified FN method can be used for albedo calculations.

Kurzfassung

Das Halbraum-Albedo-Problem und das Problem konstanter Quellen wurde gelöst für eine Kombination von linear anisotroper Streuung und İnönü’s Streufunktionen.Die lineare Transportgleichung für extem anisotrope Streukerne kann in eine äquivalente Gleichung umgewandelt werden mit einem linear anisotropen Streukern und die modifizierte FN Methode kann für Albedo-Berechnungen verwendet werden.
