Abstract
In this paper we deal with the inverse problem in radiative transfer, which is equally applicable to the neutron transport, for a finite homogeneous medium. We give a method for computing the scattering function and the albedo for single scattering. The solution is given in terms of Legendre expansion of the scattering function. A decomposition of the equation of transfer is also given in which the relation between the direct and the inverse problem is exhibited via the principles of invariance. A relation of this work with Case’s method of approach is outlined. This work should be of practical value to the problems associated with remote sensing of the terrestrial atmosphere and the neutron piles.
