Radiative transfer in very optically thick circumstellar disks
Aims. In this paper we present two efficient implementations of the diffusion approximation to be employed in Monte Carlo computations of radiative transfer in dusty media of massive circumstellar disks. The aim is to improve the accuracy of the computed temperature structure and to decrease the computation time. The accuracy, efficiency and applicability of the methods in various corners of pa...
متن کاملRadiative Transfer in Protoplanetary Disks
We present a new 3D continuum radiative transfer code, MCFOST, based on a Monte-Carlo method. The reliability and efficiency of the code is tested by comparison with five different radiative transfer codes previously tested by Pascucci et al. (2004), using a 2D disk configuration. When tested against the same disk configuration, no significant difference is found between the temperature and SED...
متن کاملRadiative Transfer Models of Mid-infrared H2o Lines in the Planet-forming Region of Circumstellar Disks
The study of warm molecular gas in the inner regions of protoplanetary disks is of key importance for the study of planet formation and especially for the transport of H2O and organic molecules to the surfaces of rocky planets/satellites. Recent Spitzer observations have shown that the mid-infrared spectra of protoplanetary disks are covered in emission lines due to water and other molecules. H...
متن کاملAn efficient algorithm for two–dimensional radiative transfer in axisymmetric circumstellar envelopes and disks
We present an algorithm for two–dimensional radiative transfer in axisymmetric, circumstellar media. The formal integration of the transfer equation is performed by a generalization of the short characteristics (SC) method to spherical coordinates. Accelerated Lambda Iteration (ALI) and Ng’s algorithm are used to converge towards a solution. By taking a logarithmically spaced radial coordinate ...
متن کاملRadiative Transfer Modeling of Passive Circumstellar Disks : Application to HR 4796 A
We present a radiative transfer model which computes the spectral energy distribution of a passive, irradiated circumstellar disk, assuming the grains are in radiative equilibrium. Dependence on the radial density profile, grain temperature estimation, and optical depth profiles on the output SED are discussed. The best fit model for HR 4796A has a minimum and maximum spherical grain size of 2....
