In mathematical physics Linear transport theory is the study of equations describing the migration of particles or energy within a host medium when such migration involves random absorption, emission and scattering events. Subject to certain simplifying assumptions, this is a common and useful framework for describing the scattering of light (radiative transfer) or neutrons (neutron transport).
