The accuracy of the ALI method for solving the radiative transfer equation in stellar atmospheres
arXiv:astro-ph/0601460
Abstract
We test the accuracy of the ALI method, widely used in stellar atmosphere modelling, by solving exactly a standard radiative transfer problem in plane-parallel geometry. Some recommendations are given for a practical use of this method.
