Abstract

This paper has been thought to describe a numerical algorithm, basedon the expansion in orders of scattering, for solving the steadyBoltzmann transport equation for photons, and to show somesubsequent numerical results which have been obtained by developingan own Matlab® code. Thespatial domain is assumed to be a rectangular-shaped containerwith air and a water phantom inside, albeit the method can beextended to arbitrarily shaped convex domains filled with some otherheterogeneous material. High energy x-rays enter the domainthrough a small rectangle located on its upper face.
