Abstract
This contribution identifies and characterizes a previously unrecognized boundary--layer structure that occurs in the context of linear transport theory, with an impact on the fields of Radiative Transfer and Neutron Transport. The existence of this boundary layer structure, which governs the interactions between different materials, or between a material and vacuum, plays a critical role in a correct description of transport phenomena. Additionally, the boundary--layer phenomenology explains and helps bypass computational difficulties reported in the literature over the last several decades.
