Klappentext First published in 1987! this book is a manual of methods for solving problems in radiative transfer. Zusammenfassung First published in 1988! this book is a manual of methods for solving problems in radiative transfer. Several of the methods! on operator perturbation as well as on polarised radiative transfer! appeared for the first time in this volume! and the sections dealing with these topics each include introductory articles.
