"Radiative Transfer is the definitive work in the field. It provides workers and students in physics, nuclear physics, astrophysics, and atmospheric studies with the foundation for the analysis of stellar atmospheres, planetary illumination, and sky radiation. Though radiative transfer has been investigated chiefly as a phenomenon of astrophysics, in recent years it has attracted the attentions of physicists as well, since essentially the same problems arise in the theory of diffusion of neutrons." -- Morton D. Hall, Distinguished Service Professor, University of ChicagoChandrasekhar presents the subject of radiative transfer in plane-parallel atmosphere as a branch of mathematical physics, with its own characteristic methods and techniques. He begins with a formulation and analysis of fundamental problems. It is shown how allowance can be made for the polarization of the radiation field by using a set of parameters first introduced by Stokes. Successive chapters deal with transfer problems in semi-infinite and finite atmosphere; Rayleigh scattering; the radiative equilibrium of a stellar atmosphere; and related astrophysical and mathematical problems. The mathematical methods employed are extremely powerful, and by means of them it has been possible to handle problems which could not be treated previously, such as the scattering of polarized light.

Outboard is Cooling
The repair kit arrived on time as scheduled. The kit contained everything needed to replace the Mercury 175 OptiMax impeller. The engine is cooling now and we are back on the water without issue. Easy replacement.

Super useful and i got it at a cheap price. Currently using it to flip between channels for my record player and for my pc. Works like a charm.

So far good
Style: R-S202BL, Configuration: w/o Wire and Plug
Very satisfied, so far. I've only used tuner & cd / dvd player. Have not tried Bluetooth yet. But sounds great with 2 Yamaha 200watt speakers and 2 Realistic Allegra 150watt speakers. 👍👍

Using this to power up some old Fisher speakers I restored.
Style: R-S202BL, Configuration: w/o Wire and Plug
This amp has the ability to provide and easy 100 watts per channel. Looks nice, no frills but nice chills when it pumps up the volume! This volume is a little bit to get use to but this is my only con is you have to keep turning and turning to get the sound where you want it. I like the old style when you turned it a tad to get volume. The sound is robust. Bluetooth is a nice touch when streaming your music wirelessly for long hours of play back with Pandora, YouTube etc. Radio is strong and AM is good. The display is easy read and you can lower the brightness too. I use an old Zen M 60GB to provide the tunes to this beast. I bought this with the Amazon Renewed listing and am very much impressed for this unit looked completely new and untouched. I am using this to power some vintage Fisher speakers from the late 60's which this does perfectly. The new 15 inch woofers installed really make a difference but the rest of the cabinets (excluding new cloth on the grills, poly fil, seals etc.) sound amazing after all these years. My dad had these in his garage which he passed away on July, 26, 2019 so this was for him in his memory. A big thanks to Amazon and Yamaha for the power to run them again.
