Effects of Spatial Discretization in Lyman-alpha Line Radiation Transfer Simulations
Peter Camps, Christoph Behrens, Maarten Baes +2
We describe the addition of Lyman-alpha resonant line transfer to our dust continuum radiation transfer code SKIRT, verifying our implementation with published results for spherica…
CMacIonize 2.0: a novel task-based approach to Monte Carlo radiation transfer
Bert Vandenbroucke, Peter Camps
(Context) Monte Carlo radiative transfer (MCRT) is a widely used technique to model the interaction between radiation and a medium, and plays an important role in astrophysical mod…
CosTuuM: polarized thermal dust emission by magnetically oriented spheroidal grains
Bert Vandenbroucke, Maarten Baes, Peter Camps
We present the new open source C++-based Python library CosTuuM that can be used to generate infrared absorption and emission coefficients for arbitrary mixtures of spheroidal dust…
The Failure of Monte Carlo Radiative Transfer at Medium to High Optical Depths
Peter Camps, Maarten Baes
Computer simulations of photon transport through an absorbing and/or scattering medium form an important research tool in astrophysics. Nearly all software codes performing such si…
SKIRT: hybrid parallelization of radiative transfer simulations
Sam Verstocken, Dries Van De Putte, Peter Camps +1
We describe the design, implementation and performance of the new hybrid parallelization scheme in our Monte Carlo radiative transfer code SKIRT, which has been used extensively fo…
Polarization in Monte Carlo radiative transfer and dust scattering polarization signatures of spiral galaxies
Christian Peest, Peter Camps, Marko Stalevski +2
Polarization is an important tool to further the understanding of interstellar dust and the sources behind it. In this paper we describe our implementation of polarization that is…
