| Abstract: | A method is developed for solving the equations of the theory of radiative transfer that is effective for an optically thick reflecting layer. The essence of the method is to go over in the transfer equation to Laplace transforms and then investigate their analytic properties and eliminate fictitious singularities. Relations are formulated for the boundary values of the intesities; in conjunction with the boundary conditions these form a closed system of linear integral Fredholm equations of the second kind with completely continuous kernels.Moscow State University.
