| Popis: | We extend the range of the searchlight problem in radiative transfer to include internal reflection arising from Fresnel and Lambert processes. For an isotropic beam and a normal beam, we calculate the albedo, the surface intensity and the mean distance of travel of a photon in the lateral direction. Numerical and graphical results are presented for the above quantities. |
