Chandrasekhar's X- and Y-function
text:
In atmospheric radiation, Chandrasekhar's X- and Y-function appears as the solutions of problems involving diffusive reflection and transmission, introduced by the Indian American astrophysicist Subrahmanyan Chandrasekhar. The Chandrasekhar's X- and Y-function X , Y defined in the interval 0 ≤ μ ≤ 1 , satisfies the pair of nonlinear integral equations where the characteristic function Ψ is an even polynomial in μ generally satisfying the condition and 0 < τ 1 < ∞ is the optical thickness of th
