Review text

Numerical solutions for the classical monoenergetic albedo and Milne problems for a half-space are obtained from a numerical Laplace transform inversion and the nonlinear integro-differential equation for the source function. Anisotropic scattering and azimuthally-dependent incident illumination are treated. Moreover, a numerical implementation and demonstration is presented.
