Decoding NGC 628 with radiative transfer methods
M. T. Rushton, C. C. Popescu, C. Inman +2
We present an axi-symmetric model for the ultraviolet (UV)-to-submillimetre (submm) images of the nearly face-on spiral galaxy NGC 628. It was calculated using a radiative transfer…
A radiation transfer model for the Milky Way. II The global properties and large scale structure
Giovanni Natale, Cristina C. Popescu, Mark Rushton +3
We obtained an axi-symmetric model for the large-scale distribution of stars and dust in the Milky Way (MW) using a radiative transfer code that can account for the existing near-i…
A radiative transfer model for the spiral galaxy M33
Jordan J. Thirlwall, Cristina C. Popescu, Richard J. Tuffs +5
We present the first radiative transfer (RT) model of a non-edge-on disk galaxy in which the large-scale geometry of stars and dust is self-consistently derived through fitting of…
A radiation transfer model for the Milky-Way: I. Radiation fields and application to High Energy Astrophysics
C. C. Popescu, R. Yang, R. J. Tuffs +3
We present a solution for the ultraviolet (UV) - submillimeter (submm) interstellar radiation fields (ISRFs) of the Milky Way, derived from modelling COBE, IRAS and Planck maps of…
TRUST I: A 3D externally illuminated slab benchmark for dust radiative transfer
K. D. Gordon, M. Baes, S. Bianchi +8
The radiative transport of photons through arbitrary three-dimensional (3D) structures of dust is a challenging problem due to the anisotropic scattering of dust grains and strong…
Spiral arm kinematics for Milky Way stellar populations
S. Pasetto, G. Natale, D. Kawata +3
We present a new theoretical population synthesis model (the Galaxy Model) to examine and deal with large amounts of data from surveys of the Milky Way and to decipher the present…
Predicting the stellar and non-equilibrium dust emission spectra of high-resolution simulated galaxies with DART-Ray
Giovanni Natale, Cristina C. Popescu, Richard. J. Tuffs +3
We describe the calculation of the stochastically heated dust emission using the 3D ray-tracing dust radiative transfer code DART-Ray, which is designed to solve the dust radiative…
A multiwavelength analysis of the clumpy FIR-bright sources in M33
G. Natale, K. Foyle, C. D. Wilson +1
We present a multiwavelength study of a sample of far-infrared (FIR) sources detected on the Herschel broad--band maps of the nearby galaxy M33. We perform source photometry on the…
