Space-time domain velocity distributions in isotropic radiative transfer in two dimensions

Abstract

We compute the exact solutions of the radiative transfer equation in two dimensions for isotropic scattering. The intensity and the radiance are given in the space-time domain for isotropic and unidirectional sources. These analytical results are compared to Monte-Carlo simulations in four particular situations.
