abstract = "In recent years, significant progress has been made indeveloping high-quality interactive methods for realistic volumeillumination. However, refraction -- despite being an important aspectof light propagation in participating media -- has so far only receivedlittle attention. In this paper, we present a novel approach forrefractive volume illumination including caustics capable of interactiveframe rates. By interleaving light and viewing ray propagation, ourtechnique avoids memory-intensive storage of illumination informationand does not require any precomputation. It is fully dynamic and allparameters such as light position and transfer function can be modifiedinteractively without a performance penalty.",
