Radiative Transfer

Radiative Transfer is the physical process of energy propagation through electromagnetic radiation as it interacts with matter via absorption, emission, and scattering, distinguished from other transport mechanisms by its reliance on photon interactions in continuous media within atmospheric, astrophysical, and particulate environments.
