Opis

The book is a complete text for a one-semester introductory graduate course on radiative energy transfer. It covers radiative transfer among surfaces, with an introduction to the effects of participating media between surfaces, surface and medium property characteristics, and solution of the radiative transfer equation in simple geometries.
