Scientific paper

A new definition of the effective depth of line formation is given which incorporates its dependence on the angle of emergence as well as on the position within the line. Solution obtained for isotropic scattering in the third approximation of discrete ordinates explains: (1) variation of equivalent widths over the disc; (2) inverse dependence of this variation on line strength; and (3) the phase effect for relative equivalent widths.
