Simulation of Radiative Transfer Within X-ray Microcalorimeter Absorbers
AbstractWe present Monte Carlo simulations of radiative transfer within the absorbers of X-ray microcalorimeters, utilizing a numerical model for the photon propagation and photon absorption process within the absorber structure. In our model, we include effects of Compton scattering off bound electrons and fluorescence.

Optical depth in polarised Monte Carlo radiative transfer [PDF]
Context: The Monte Carlo method is the most widely used method to solve radiative transfer problems in astronomy, especially in a fully general 3D geometry. A crucial concept in any Monte Carlo radiative transfer code is the random generation of the next

ARTS, the atmospheric radiative transfer simulator
Abstract ARTS is a modular program that simulates atmospheric radiative transfer. The paper describes ARTS version 1.0, which is applicable in the absence of scattering. An overview over all major parts of the model is given: calculation of absorption coefficients, the radiative transfer itself, and the calculation of Jacobians.

Radiative Transfer Simulations of Infrared Dark Clouds [PDF]
AbstractThe determination of prestellar core structure is often based on observations of (sub)millimeter dust continuum. However, recently the Spitzer Space Telescope provided us with IR images of many objects not only in emission but also in absorption.

Is a scaling factor required to obtain closure between measured and modelled atmospheric O4 absorptions? An assessment of uncertainties of measurements and radiative transfer simulations for 2 selected days during the MAD-CAT campaign [PDF]
In this study the consistency between MAX-DOAS measurements and radiative transfer simulations of the atmospheric O4 absorption is investigated on 2 mainly cloud-free days during the MAD-CAT campaign in Mainz, Germany, in summer 2013.

Multiangle observations of Arctic clouds from FIRE ACE: June 3, 1998, case study [PDF]
In May and June 1998 the Airborne Multiangle Imaging Spectroradiometer (AirMISR) participated in the FIRE Arctic Cloud Experiment (ACE). AirMISR is an airborne instrument for obtaining multiangle imagery similar to that of the satellite-borne MISR ...

Over 500 Days in the Life of the Photosphere of the Type Iax Supernova SN 2014dt
Type Iax supernovae (SNe Iax) are the largest known class of peculiar white dwarf SNe, distinct from normal Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia). The unique properties of SNe Iax, especially their strong photospheric lines out to extremely late times, allow us to

Simulation of SEVIRI infrared channels: a case study from the Eyjafjallajökull April/May 2010 eruption [PDF]
Infrared satellite images are widely and successfully used to detect and follow atmospheric ash from erupting volcanoes. We describe a new radiative transfer model framework for the simulation of infrared radiances, which can be compared directly with ...

Atmospheric dynamics of red supergiant stars and Interferometry
We developed a 3D pure LTE radiative transfer code to derive observables expected for RSGs, with emphasis on small scale structures, from radiative-hydrodynamic (RHD) simulations of red supergiant stars (RSGs) carried out with CO5BOLD (Freytag et al ...
