The Kinetic Transport Equation in the Case of Compton Scattering

We improve the well-known form of the transport equation accounting for Compton scattering. We pose and study the direct problem of finding the radiation density distribution for given characteristics of a medium and known density of exterior sources. We prove existence and uniqueness theorems for a solution to the boundary value problem under consideration. The character of constraints corresponds mostly to the process of photon migration in a substance whose characteristics vary continuously with the space and energy variables. Unlike similar results, the assertions are proven without using the traditional inequalities for the coefficients of the transport equation.
