Maximum entropy Eddington factors
Description
A technique from statistical mechanics is applied to the problem of determining the most probable value of the Eddington tensor given the zeroth and first moment of the intensity. The result is applicable to two- and three-dimensional configurations and is intended for use in large radiation hydrodynamics calculations. 1 figure
