摘要：

We extend the theory of radiative transfer in inhomogeneous media to handle transfer for scale lengths small compared to the scale size of the inhomogeneity. We call this the microscopic domain of inhomogeneous radiative transfer. We introduce a concept called the vector intensity distribution to characterize the statistical properties of radiation in various species of medium. We express radiative transfer in an inhomogeneous atmosphere in terms of the evolution of this vector intensity distribution and its various moments along the optical path.
