Dear John, The early history of the RT theory is briefly summarized in Section 2 of https://www.giss.nasa.gov/staff/mmishchenko/publications/2014_JQSRT_146_4.pdf Chronologically, the RTE should be attributed to Lommel and Khvolson (late 1880s). The attachment summarizes the "astrophysical" perspective (the author obviously was not aware of Lommel's and Khvolson's work). Cheers, Michael Mishchenko _____________________________________________________________________________________ Good question! The publications in the 1930s on the Turing machines and some related were the first about modern computers. When was radiative transfer first developed as a concept- Chandrasekhar or before? I am interested in the result.
