Abstract
Relations are derived for reflection and transmission matrices of slabs in the double pN approximation which permit their evaluation without the determination of particular eigenvalues and eigenvectors for each problem. Invariance principles also lead to results analogous to those of Chandrasekhar in his classical theory of radiative transfer.
