This review describes advances in radiative transfer theory since about 1985. We stress fundamental aspects and emphasize
modern methods for the numerical solution of the transfer equation for spatially multidimensional problems, for both unpolarized
and polarized radiation. We restrict the discussion to two-level atoms with noninverted populations for given temperature,
density and velocity fields.

This paper looks at three aspects of numerical methods for solving polarized radiative transfer problems associated with spectral line formation in the presence of a magnetic field. First we prove Murphy's law for Stokes evolution operators which is the basis of the efficient algorithm used in the SPSR software package to compute the Stokes line depression contribution functions. Then we use a two-stream model to explain the efficacy of the field-free method in which the non-LTE line source function in a uniform magnetic field is approximated by the source function neglecting the magnetic field. Finally we introduce a totally new and computationally efficient approach to solving non-LTE problems based on a method of sparsely representing integral operators using wavelets. As an illustration, the wavelet method is used to solve the source function integral equation for a two-level atomic model in a finite atmosphere with coherent scattering, ignoring polarization. 相似文献

We describe the interaction principle which is of fundamental importance to the theory of radiative transfer in one-, two-, and three-dimensional geometry. We also describe the practical difficulties associated with this principle in these geometries. 相似文献

The concepts of contribution functions (CF) and of mean depths of line formation of unpolarized light as well as of Stokes profiles will be critically discussed. After having outlined the historical development arguments are given in favour of the use of directly observable quantities such as the emergent line intensity or the polarized components seen through polarization optics only. The arguments are provided by a probability interpretation of the CF; the ambiguities of line depression CF as well as some physically strange features in Stokes profiles are avoided if the rules based on this interpretation are observed. Some problems of the interpretation of measurements in chromospheric lines will be discussed as well. 相似文献

Finite difference codes for the solution of the fully three dimensional equations of hydrodynamics, self-gravitation, and radiative transfer have been developed for use on relatively modest computers. Originally developed to study the collapse and fragmentation of protostellar clouds, this family of codes has been used to study a variety of astrophysical problems, with a particular emphasis on cosmogonical issues. 相似文献

In a series of papers (cf. Bellmanet al., 1965a, b; Kagiwadaet al., 1975), an estimation of optical properties of turbid media has been made, in the least-squared sense, with the aid of quasi-linearization and invariant imbedding. Recently, an extension of the above procedure to the three-dimensional case with horizontally inhomogeneous albedo of the underlying surface has been attempted (Ueno, 1982). From computational aspects the numerical evaluation is not so easy, even by means of high-speed electronic computers. In the present paper it is shown that the latin-square algorithm is a useful estimate for the least-squares inference of the optical properties of turbid media bounded by an inhomogeneous reflecting surface. 相似文献

The physical peculiarities of supernova shock breakout are discussed. A number of models for various types of supernovae have
been constructed based on multigroup radiative transfer by taking these peculiarities into account. The results of numerical
simulations and the influence of the effects of photon scattering by electrons and the thermalization depth on them are considered.
It is shown under which conditions the appearance of hard X-ray emission is possible at shock breakout. It is pointed out
what refinements are necessary in the computational algorithms for radiative transfer and hydrodynamics. 相似文献

Group theory is used to describe a procedure for adding inhomogeneous absorbing and scattering atmospheres in a one-dimensional
approximation. The inhomogeneity originates in the variation of the scattering coefficient with depth. Group representations
are derived for the composition of media in three different cases: inhomogeneous atmospheres in which the scattering coefficient
varies continuously with depth, composite or multicomponent atmospheres, and the special case of homogeneous atmospheres.
We extend an earlier proposal to solve problems in radiative transfer theory by first finding global characteristics of a
medium (reflection and transmission coefficients) and then determining the internal radiation field for an entire family of
media without solving any new equations. Semi-infinite atmospheres are examined separately. For some special depth dependences
of the scattering coefficients it is possible to obtain simple analytic solutions expressed in terms of elementary functions.
An algorithm for numerical solution of radiative transfer problems in inhomogeneous atmospheres is described. 相似文献

The transfer process of hard X-ray radiation passing through a cold plasma is studied in this paper under the diffusion approximation. We call such a particular transfer process a down-Comptonization. A diffusion equation describing this process is derived and its potential applications in astrophysics and radiation physics are also pointed out. 相似文献

It is shown that the group of problems in the theory of radiative transfer that are reducible to the sourcefree problem admits
a class of integrals involving quadratic moments of the intensity of arbitrarily high orders. Based on a variational principle,
it is found that these integrals, which include the R-integral, follow from the corresponding conservation laws. Some of the
results are generalized to the case of anisotropic scattering. 相似文献
