Abstract
A pair of biorthogonality relations, relevant to some elements of a generalized spherical-harmonics solution of the homogeneous equation of transfer, is derived and used, along with linear-algebra techniques, to develop a particular solution appropriate to the scattering of polarized light. The considered radiative-transfer model is based on a general treatment of polarization effects in a plane-parallel medium that contains a source that varies with position and both direction variables.
