    3939Now photons don't experience body forces, always travel at the speed of light,  and in general the "collision term" consists of photon emission and absorptions... so we have

    41  [[latex(\frac{\partial}{\partial t} f_\nu + c \mathbf{n} \cdot  \nabla f_\nu  = A_{emiss}_\nu - \chi_\nu f_nu c  )]]
     41 [[latex(\frac{\partial}{\partial t} f_\nu + c \mathbf{n} \cdot  \nabla f_\nu  = A_{\mbox{emiss},\nu} - \chi_\nu f_\nu c  )]]
    4242
    4343where [[latex(A_{emiss}_\nu)]] is the emission rate of photons of frequency [[latex(\nu)]] and the mean free path length is given by [[latex(\chi_\nu = \sigma_nu n)]] where [[latex(\sigma_nu)]] is the particle scattering cross section and [[latex(n)]] is the number density of particles.
