Description
The numerical solution of the idealized, but self-consistent, LTE atmosphere problem posed by the authors has been used to introduce the effect of multiple scattering on the temperature gradient, the spectral distribution of the observed flux and the intensity discontinuities. In the theoretical consideration of the problem, the nature of scattering on free electrons is not necessarily the only nor the most effective mechanism among the scattering processes.
