Vector Radiative Transfer

Vector Radiative Transfer is a radiative transfer theory that extends scalar radiative transfer by explicitly accounting for the polarization state of electromagnetic radiation through the use of Stokes vectors and Mueller matrices to describe the directional, spectral, and polarimetric evolution of radiation in a medium.
