Stochastic radiative transfer in random media: Pure absorbing cases.

We study stochastic radiation transport through random media in one dimension, in particular for pure absorbing cases. The statistical model to calculate the ensemble-averaged transmission for a binary random mixture is derived based on the cumulative probability density function (PDF) of optical depth, which is numerically simulated for both Markovian and non-Markovian mixtures by Monte Carlo calculations. We present systematic results about the influence of mixtures' stochasticity on the radiation transport.
