Radiative transfer and flux theory
The fundamental phenomenological equations of radiative transfer, e.g., Lambert's cosine rule and the radiant transport equation, are derived from an analysis based on the Cauchy flux theory of continuum mechanics. For the classical case, where the radiance is distributed regularly over the unit sphere, it is shown that Lambert's rule follows from a balance law for the transfer of radiative pow...
متن کاملCovariant Magnetoionic Theory II: Radiative Transfer
Accretion onto compact objects plays a central role in high energy astrophysics. In these environments, both general relativistic and plasma effects may have significant impacts upon the spectral and polarimetric properties of the accretion flow. In paper I we presented a fully general relativistic magnetoionic theory, capable of tracing rays in the geometric optics approximation through a magn...
متن کاملMany-body radiative heat transfer theory.
In this Letter, an N-body theory for the radiative heat exchange in thermally nonequilibrated discrete systems of finite size objects is presented. We report strong exaltation effects of heat flux which can be explained only by taking into account the presence of many-body interactions. Our theory extends the standard Polder and van Hove stochastic formalism used to evaluate heat exchanges betw...
متن کاملModeling lidar waveforms with time-dependent stochastic radiative transfer theory for remote estimations of forest structure
[1] Large footprint waveform-recording laser altimeters (lidars) have demonstrated a potential for accurate remote sensing of forest biomass and structure, important for regional and global climate studies. Currently, radiative transfer analyses of lidar data are based on the simplifying assumption that only single scattering contributes to the return signal, which may lead to errors in the mod...
متن کاملCRASH3: cosmological radiative transfer through metals
Here we introduce CRASH3, the latest release of the 3D radiative transfer code CRASH. In its current implementation CRASH3 integrates into the reference algorithm the code Cloudy to evaluate the ionisation states of metals, self-consistently with the radiative transfer through H and He. The feedback of the heavy elements on the calculation of the gas temperature is also taken into account, maki...
