摘要
This paper is devoted to studies of the accuracy of approximate equations for the reflection function of semi-infinite turbid media. It is assumed that the probability of photon absorption by a particle is low. We derive quadratic and cubic terms of the expansion of the reflection function with respect to rootbeta. Our results show that the cubic term makes a great improvement in the accuracy in the region of values of the similarity parameter that are not small.
