Description
Some considerations about the zodiacal light brightness integral from
the stand point of the theory of integral equations are made. It is
shown that for observation directions confined to a plane perpendicular
to the ecliptic and passing through the Sun, the Z.L. brightness
integral can be formally considered as a first kind integral equation of
Volterra type (V.I.E.). In a second step, this equation is transformed
into a V.I.E. of the second kind, from which, and under certain
assumptions, the spatial distribution of dust out of the ecliptic is
obtained.
