Abstract
The infinite medium inverse problem with an azimuthally dependent plane source leads to integral moments of the intensity over all space and angle. A new relationship has been derived between the moments and the coefficients of the expansion of powers of ν in terms of the gmk(ν) polynomials which arise in transport problems without azimuthal symmetry. This relationship has been used to obtain an improved method for determining the moments.Keywords
