    8787From this equation, it is clear that h is the scale-height. Thus, by writing R as:
    8888
    89 [[latex($R \approx |-\frac{\tau_R}{L \rho}| \approx \frac{\tau_R}{h \rho}$)]]
     89[[latex($R \approx |-\frac{\tau_R}{h \rho}| \approx \frac{\tau_R}{h \rho}$)]]
    9090
    9191we can set h to be the distance between the sink and box side (h=L), and imagine it as the scale height for the radiation.

     93Now, Offner et al. 2009 state that the Rosseland specific opacity is best fit by
    9394
     95[[latex($\kappa_R=0.23~\frac{cm^2}{g}$)]]
     96
     97for 10 K gas.
     98
     99This implies that the optical depth is,
     100
     101[[latex($\tau_R\approx4.3~\frac{g}{cm^2}$)]]
     102
