NUMERICAL-SOLUTION OF A SET OF RADIATIVE- TRANSFER EQUATIONS IN A NONUNIFORM MAGNETIC-FIELD IN THE LTE APPROXIMATION

A system of equations of radiative transfer in the magnetic field is p resented for both common Stokes parameters and parameters for which th e absorption matrix is diagonal. LTE is assumed, and only true absorpt ion is taken into account. The equations are revised and transformed t o a more convenient form. A brief description of the numerical algorit hm for a solution of the equations of radiative transfer under the ass umption of a discrete, plane-parallel structure of the magnetic field is given.
