Parameterized code SHARM-3D for radiative transfer over inhomogeneous surfaces.
The code SHARM-3D, developed for fast and accurate simulations of the monochromatic radiance at the top of the atmosphere over spatially variable surfaces with Lambertian or anisotropic reflectance, is described. The atmosphere is assumed to be laterally uniform across the image and to consist of two layers with aerosols contained in the bottom layer. The SHARM-3D code performs simultaneous cal...
متن کاملRadiative Transfer in 3d
The high resolution and sensitivity provided by ALMA will reveal new small scale structures in many sources, e.g. star forming regions. Such inhomogeneities may not have been considered in the analysis of past observations but they will be essential to the understanding of future data. Radiative transfer methods are needed to interpret the observations and the presence of complicated source str...
متن کاملRadiative Transfer in Inhomogeneous Atmospheres - Numerical Results
The FN method is used to establish accurate numerical results for the albedo and the exit distribution of radiation relevant to an illuminated semi-infinite half space with an exponentially varying albedo for single scattering.
متن کاملStokes-vector evolution in a weakly anisotropic inhomogeneous medium.
The equation for evolution of the four-component Stokes vector in weakly anisotropic and smoothly inhomogeneous media is derived on the basis of a quasi-isotropic approximation of the geometrical optics method, which provides the consequent asymptotic solution of Maxwell's equations. Our equation generalizes previous results obtained for the normal propagation of electromagnetic waves in strati...
متن کاملA Weakly Nonlinear Alfvénic Pulse in a Transversely Inhomogeneous Medium
The interaction of a weakly nonlinear Alfvénic pulse with an Alfvén speed inhomogeneity in the direction perpendicular to the magnetic field is investigated. Identically to the phase mixing experienced by a harmonic Alfvén wave, sharp transverse gradients are generated in the pulse by the inhomogeneity. In the initial stage of the evolution of an initially plane Alfvénic pulse, the transverse g...
