Radiative transfer model for a spherical atmosphere.

A new model for computing radiative transfer in a spherically symmetric atmosphere has been developed which uses a Gauss-Sidel iteration similar to Herman(1963). To account for inhomogeneities in the horizontal intensity field, the current work introduces a conical boundary on which solutions are fo...
