Continuum & Line Radiative Transfer<br />

dIν<br />

dτ = Sν − Iν , dust in radiative equilibrium (+ non-rad. heating)<br />

incident stellar: incident interstellar:<br />

• far UV (Draine)<br />

• CMB (2.7 K)<br />

• isotrop<br />

EITHER use ProDiMo ...<br />

– isotropic scat. ray-based, long-char., accelerated Λ-iteration<br />

OR use MCFOST (Pinte et al. 2009; Ménard’s previous talk) ...<br />

– anisotropic scattering, Monte-Carlo, diffusion solver, ...<br />

• ray-tracing of continuum and non-LTE line transfer, for given inclination,<br />

to get simulated observations<br />

• open issues: gas opacities? X-ray RT with Compton scattering?<br />
