Abstract
En 中文
Some subtle distinctions between optically thin emission and optically thick emission (with a dynamically passive source of opacity) from an emitting surface are drawn. It is noted that photons may escape a region of high optical depth by dragging the opaque material with them, and that optically thick emission can have a shorter scale of variation than optically thin emission and less light echoing.
