摘要
We analyze in detail the statistics of the frequency redistribution of photons during the transfer of gyroresonance radiation under conditions typical of compact stars. The probabilities of photon escape from a scattering atmosphere of arbitrary optical thickness in a single scattering have been found. The effects of gyroresonance photon diffusion in space and in frequency have been simulated. We show that when photons escape from a semi-infinite atmosphere with weak absorption, the frequency redistribution effects lead to a considerable increase in the probability of photon escape from large optical depths and, consequently, modify significantly the dynamics of gyroresonance photon transfer for neutron stars and white dwarfs.
