Description:
Derivation of an exact solution for the problem of line transfer by resonant scattering (assumed coherent in the fluid frame) in a differentially expanding atmosphere. The probabilistic method developed is a generalization of the method of addition of layers plus a decomposition of the radiation field into partial radiation fields due to those photons that scatter exactly n times before escaping (n = 0, 1, 2, 3,
