Abstract
Asymptotic calculations for reflection and transmission coefficients for particles incident on an inhomogeneous plane parallel medium are performed. The medium is assumed to consist of several different optically thick homogeneous layers. Functional relations between the reflection and transmission coefficients for the sublayers are obtained. The invariant embedding concepts are used to calculate the albedo for sublayers. Numerical calculations and comparisons are performed.
