We study light transport in a honeycomb structure as the simplest two-dimensional model foam. We apply geometrical optics to set up a persistent random walk for the photons. For three special injection angles of 30 degrees, 60 degrees, and 90 degrees relative to a hexagon's edge, we are able to demonstrate by analytic…
