Effective medium theory and Rosseland mean opacity
As a gas cools the mean opacity becomes dominated by the opacity of molecules and at low temperatures solid dust grains. Accurately computing the opacity is necessary to accurately compute the transfer of radiation through a gas. An attempt is made to refine the calculation of opacity within the ste...
