A study is made of radiative transfer in a hot optically thick plasma with strong magnetic field under conditions when the scattering processes predominate over true absorption processes. The condition of saturated comptonization is formulated; this means that the photons change their frequency as a result of multiple Compton scatterings in a time much shorter than the time of their escape from the medium. Then at each point of the medium a Wien spectrum is formed, its chemical potential being determined by the balance between the generation of photons and their escape from the medium. Analytic expressions are obtained for the flux of radiation escaping from a semiinfinite isothermal medium, and also for the spectrum and angular distribution of the emergent radiation.
