Abstract: | Chandrasekhar’s work in radiative transfer theory began in 1944 and culminated with the publication of his influential treatiseRadiative Transfer in 1950. In this review his major contributions to radiative transfer will be recounted and evaluated. These include his
development of the discrete ordinates method, the invariance principles, and his formulation and solution of the transfer
equation for polarized light. |
