Description

We consider the relativistic photon diffusion equation for unbounded media of Lemiux et al, to which we present an analytical solution in terms of the physical parameters of a LArTPC. We account for photon absorption at the boundaries through physical considerations, instead of a boundary value problem. Then we compare our results to several Geant4 simulations and analyze the results and discuss the possibility of application for an actual detector.
